Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday evening in St. Petersburg.
A spokesman for Putin said the question of financial aid was not discussed.
Tsipras traveled to Russia as his country struggles to reach a deal with its creditors for new loans it needs to avoid defaulting on debt payments at the end of the month.
Without the bailout, Greece could be headed for bankruptcy or an exit from the 19-nation eurozone.
Tsipras' visit gave rise to speculation that the Greeks may be seeking Russian loans.
Putin's spokesman added Russia would consider a loan if the Greeks asked for one.
