Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on peace talks following the visit of US envoys first to Moscow and then to Kyiv, reports Russian media.
Peskov said that Russia does not rule out resuming trilateral talks on Ukraine. Moscow allegedly highly values the peacekeeping efforts of the American side.
The spokesman added that Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin personally thanked US President Donald Trump for his desire for peace.
Peskov did not explain how the proposals of the US envoys during their meeting with Putin differed from the so-called Anchorage formula.
The Kremlin also says that it does not yet have information about the results of the US negotiators' contacts with the Ukrainian leadership.
On Saturday, September 5, US special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Moscow for talks with Putin.
The meeting at the Kremlin lasted about three hours. At the beginning of the talks, the Russian dictator said that the situation in Ukraine was "difficult."
The following day, September 6, the US delegation arrived in Kyiv for the first time, where it held several rounds of talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Representatives from Britain, France, and Germany later joined the discussions.
The sides discussed security guarantees and the territorial issue.
Following the meeting, President Zelenskyy said that the US envoys "had not come for nothing."
