【Russian Presidential Aide: Confirming the Postponement of the First Russia-Arab Summit】

Moscow time November 24, 2025, on the eve of Russian President Putin's visit to Kyrgyzstan, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov responded to questions from the Kremlin press corps:

It is clear that I will be 100% certain that the first Russia-Arab summit will be postponed, most likely to the first half of next year. Practical contact with representatives of Arab countries has already begun. We will clarify this date.

Lao Liu's supplementary information:

The first Russia-Arab summit, originally scheduled for mid-October 2025, was forced to be postponed to December 2025 due to a conflict with Trump's visit to the Middle East that facilitated a Gaza peace agreement. It has now been confirmed to be postponed again to next year, mainly because of Putin's busy schedule next month, especially his visit to India.
