Bloomberg discussed the meeting as a continuation of the June talks in Geneva. 93 countries attended the summit in Switzerland, but Russia did not send representatives.

As Bloomberg reports, Ukraine is also keen for Russians to participate in the peace summit.

Bloomberg highlights that Ukraine's efforts to arrange a peace summit ahead of the November presidential elections in the US suggest concerns about Donald Trump potentially returning to office.

Kyiv is known to be concerned that Trump may not be as willing to help as Joe Biden has been so far.

Western officials emphasize that such talks must be "carefully organized with clearly defined goals and expectations."

The Kremlin firmly refuses. Talks about "manifestations of deceit"

Meanwhile, Russia's position is clearly defined. The Kremlin does not intend to participate in the second peace summit on Ukraine. "We know the intentions of the Kyiv regime and its Western curators to 'rehabilitate' after the failed peace summit in Switzerland and to try to organize a similar event," commented Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin in an interview with Ria Novosti.

"We do not accept such ultimatums and will not participate in such 'summits,'" said Galuzin, calling the idea for another peace conference a "manifestation of deceit."
