Kremlin: To resolve the Ukrainian crisis, there is much work to Russia and the US
reports Mehr News Agency A spokesman for the Kremlin believes that despite Russia and the United States to resolve the Ukrainian crisis, it still requires a lot of work to address technical issues.
“Both sides clearly tend to move to peace and have a common understanding of this,” said Peskov in response to US President Donald Trump’s remarks on the general plan of peace deal in Ukraine. In general, many aspects of the peace process must definitely be addressed.
Russian President Vladimir Putin made at least two phone calls with Trump in February and March. The focus of these conversations was to revive Russian -US relations, and the presidents of the two countries also discussed efforts to resolve the Ukrainian war. Moscow supported Washington’s initiative for the ceasefire, including in the Black Sea, but insisted that some important issues should be resolved.
Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia today, hosts another round of Russian-US negotiations today. Gregory Karasin, chairman of the Russian Federation’s Committee on International Affairs, and Sergei Basda, director of the federal security service, are involved in the negotiations as Moscow’s representatives aimed at restoring the Black Sea Cereal Agreement.
Cereal agreement aimed at providing a secure corridor for export of Ukrainian grains through the Black Sea ports as well as facilitating export of agricultural products and fertilizer Russian fertilizer. However, most of the Ukrainian grains were issued to European countries contrary to agreement, while the main purpose of the agreement was to ensure cereals for the needy countries, which of course failed. Also, the commitments to Russia were not fulfilled under the agreement, and as a result, Moscow was out of the agreement in July.
