默茨称德国总理迟早须与普京交谈:不排除12月G20期间会面 克里姆林宫称普京持开放态度

德国总理默茨近日在德国 Hagen 市参加《威斯特法伦邮报》市民对话时表示,德国总理迟早也必须与俄罗斯总统普京交谈。这是他就任总理以来首次公开松口愿意与普京当面谈,但这只是意愿表态,不是已经排定的双边会晤。
被问到12月是否可能交谈时,默茨说「不排除」。他说,如果普京到场,他不会回避一次交谈的机会;在政治中,必须与意见与自己完全不同的人交谈。他所指的是12月在美国 Miami 举行的二十国集团峰会:特朗普已邀请普京,普京尚未确认出席。默茨与普京此前没有单独会面或通话。
克里姆林宫发言人 Dmitry Peskov 11月11日经塔斯社回应称,普京对与欧洲人包括默茨的接触持开放态度,普京是否赴二十国集团峰会尚未决定。
默茨这一表态并不等于对俄立场转向。他11月3日在柏林与乌克兰总统泽连斯基同台时刚刚表示,俄方尚未认真谈停火、欧洲必须在场;如果二十国集团要谈乌克兰,泽连斯基必须在桌上,由第三国在没有乌克兰参与的情况下讨论乌克兰的未来完全不可接受。
Merz Says a German Chancellor Must Talk to Putin at Some Point; Kremlin Says Putin Is Open to Contact
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said at a Westfalenpost citizens' dialogue in Hagen that a German chancellor must, at some point, also talk to Russian President Vladimir Putin. It was his first public openness since taking office to speaking with Putin face to face, but it was a statement of willingness, not a scheduled bilateral meeting.
Asked whether a conversation could happen in December, Merz said that was "not ruled out." If Putin is there, he said, he would not shy away from an opportunity for a conversation, and in politics one has to talk with people who hold completely different opinions. He was referring to the December G20 summit in Miami, to which Donald Trump has invited Putin; Putin has not confirmed he will attend. Merz and Putin have had no separate meeting or phone call.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov responded on November 11 via TASS that Putin is open to contact with Europeans, including Merz, and that whether Putin will attend the G20 summit has not been decided.
The remark does not amount to a shift in Germany's stance toward Russia. Standing with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Berlin on November 3, Merz had just said Russia was not yet seriously negotiating a ceasefire and that Europe must be present; if the G20 discusses Ukraine, Zelensky must be at the table, and it would be completely unacceptable for third countries to discuss Ukraine's future without Ukraine.
