MOSCOW, (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Angela Merkel will discuss the disputed, Moscow-led Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline project when they meet near Berlin at the weekend, a Kremlin spokesman said.
The two leaders, who last met in May, will hold talks at the Meseberg palace outside the German capital on Saturday.
Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, told a daily conference call that they will discuss Ukraine and Syria, as well as “bilateral trade ties”, “large international commercial projects”, Nord Stream-2 and other issues.
