The war in Ukraine took all the attention of the summit between Russia and Central Asia held in Astana.

The Russian president has met with leaders of the former Soviet republics, who do not hide their concern about what is happening in Ukraine, a country that was also part of the Soviet Union.

At the press conference after the meeting, Putin answered the question of whether he will meet with US President Joe Biden at the G20 summit in Indonesia.

"You should ask Biden if he is ready to negotiate with me. Honestly, I see no need. There is still no platform for these negotiations," said the head of the Kremlin.

Putin also spoke about the alleged connection of the humanitarian corridors for the transport of Ukrainian grain with the attack on the Kerch bridge and rejected any threat.

"The Federal Security Service (FSB) pointed out that the cargo, you could say explosives, was sent by sea from Odesa. But it has not yet been verified. If it was done with the help of grain cargo ships, if it is established that the humanitarian corridor is used to carry out terrorist attacks, it would certainly call into question the further operation (existence) of this humanitarian passage," he said.

Asked if he regrets the invasion of Ukraine, the Russian president said that if he had not done so, the situation would have been much worse for Russia in the future.
