Putin’s office stated that it had not received any signals about results of negotiations in Europe
Russia has stated that it has not yet received any official information about the results of the negotiations that took place in Europe with the participation of Ukraine, the United States and European countries.
According to Censor.NET, this was reported by Russian propaganda media, citing Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
The Kremlin's position on the negotiations
The Russian president's spokesman said that Moscow is not ready to discuss a new round of negotiations with Washington until it has familiarised itself with the results of the consultations between the US, Ukraine and European partners.
"We must first familiarise ourselves with the outcome of the negotiations between the Americans and Ukrainians with the participation of Europeans," Peskov said, responding to a question about the timing of a possible new round of negotiations between Russia and the US.
Thus, the Kremlin has effectively confirmed that it is currently awaiting signals from the American side regarding further steps in the negotiation process.
