Moscow: There are no immediate plans to organize talks between Presidents Vladimir Putin of Russia and Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine, Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
“No, there are no such plans so far,” he said in an answer to a question by TASS. Commenting on Turkey’s and Kazakhstan’s mediation offers, the Kremlin spokesman stressed that “direct talks are underway between the Russian and Ukrainian delegations.”
On Monday, negotiators from the two sides met in Gomel Region in Belarus, and held talks for five hours. The two sides agreed to hold a new round of negotiations on the Belarusian-Polish border in the next few days. Head of the Russian delegation, presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky, said on Monday that the two sides “discussed in detail all the items on the agenda and found some common points on which we predict common positions can be found”.
“The most important thing is that [we] have agreed to continue the negotiation process, and the next meeting will take place in the next few days on the Polish-Belarusian border. There is such an agreement,” Medinsky said. (UNI)
