Russia has said that a summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Turkish counterpart Tayyip Erdogan, planned during the sidelines of G-20 summit last month, will not happen now.

The meet was scheduled to take place on December 15 in St Petersburg.

"It won't happen, it's not planned," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday.  

The two men last met in Turkey during the G-20 summit which predated Ankara's shooting down of a Russian military jet near the Syrian-Turkish border.

Ties between the two countries have sharply deteriorated since the downing of the Russian jet, a move described by Putin as 'a dastardly stab in the back'.
