Kremlin says Moscow is aware of talks between the US and Ukraine on ending the war, according to Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov
"Russia's contacts with US representatives regarding Ukraine are ongoing," Peskov said.
According to him, Moscow allegedly receives information about what is happening in the negotiations between Washington and Kyiv.
What Zelenskyy said
Yesterday, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in his evening address, said that after the visit of the negotiating team to the United States, there is no real progress in the peace process. The reason for this is Russia's unwillingness to settle the war.
The president emphasized the importance of the participation of the EU, the US, and other international partners in restoring diplomatic negotiations in order to force Moscow to move toward a peaceful resolution of the conflict.
Talks in the US
Talks between Ukraine and the United States in Florida took place over the weekend, March 21 and 22.
Following the first day, US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff stated that the parties are gradually narrowing the list of disputed issues for a future peace agreement and focusing on security and stability issues.
Earlier, Zelenskyy stressed that these talks should demonstrate Russia's real readiness to end the war.
During the second round, the parties discussed the development of a reliable security system and humanitarian issues.
