MOSCOW, Oct. 10 - Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit Berlin on Oct. 19 for talks with some leaders of the European Union and Ukraine to discuss a solution to the Ukrainian crisis, Reuters reported Monday, citing a Kremlin aide.

Putin is already due to visit Paris on that day, although French President Francois Hollande has said he may not see his Russian counterpart. Hollande has condemned Putin's "unacceptable" support for Syrian air strikes.

It was not immediately clear whether Putin planned to visit both cities on the same day.
