MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russia said on Friday it remains open to the idea of a summit with the United States in Budapest if it is properly prepared and based on agreements reached at the previous meeting between presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in Alaska.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said contacts between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio would continue if needed.
The two sides announced the planned summit last month but Trump cancelled it soon afterwards, saying he did not want it to be a waste of time.
