Steffen Seibert, Merkel's spokesman, highlighted the need to continue peace talks under the Minsk agreement, saying that a summit in Berlin would take place "if the requirements for progress are there." The Kremlin recently proposed a meeting on October 19 between Putin, Merkel, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and French President Francois Hollande but Merkel's government has not confirmed whether the meeting will take place.
The German chancellor recently held phone talks with Poroshenko, Putin and Hollande about the possibility of hosting talks.
