MOSCOW, August 8. /TASS/. A possible summit meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Donald Trump should be expected late next week, an unnamed TASS source said on Friday.

"The meeting is possible to be organized late next week," the source said.

According to Russian Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov’s previous statements, Moscow "is amenable" to the US proposal to hold a personal meeting between Putin and Trump.

The Kremlin aide told journalists on August 7 that an agreement on the planning of such a meeting had indeed been reached with American colleagues and both sides are currently engaged in "detailed preparations" for this meeting.

According to Ushakov’s previous statements, the meeting is tentatively being planned for next week: "But the parties are initiating preparations for this important meeting directly, and it is difficult to say how many days the preparation will take."
