WorldU.S. and Russian finance chiefs discuss Ukraine war and economic cooperation at G20
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent met Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov at the G20 finance ministers’ summit in Asheville, North Carolina. Reports said they discussed Donald Trump’s plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war and possible economic cooperation. European governments objected to Siluanov’s attendance; he ultimately skipped the traditional group photo. It was his first in-person G20 meeting since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
