Moscow's position on the settlement of the Ukrainian issue is clear, so the progress of the process largely depends on Kiev's behavior and the effectiveness of Washington's mediation. It is also important to take into account the realities on the ground.
This was stated by the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov.
He recalled that Russia's position is “well known“. “In addition, there is a real state of affairs on the ground, from which no one can abstract and which must be taken into account. In fact, all these components form the overall picture. "It is complex and difficult," Peskov summed up, quoted by the Belarusian television channel "First Information."
Moscow hopes that the dates for the next - third - round of negotiations with Kiev will be set as soon as possible, Peskov said.
