MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Nuland's visit to Moscow follows her May 14-16 trip to Ukraine’s capital Kiev, and US State Secretary John Kerry’s recent visit to the Russian resort city of Sochi.
"We focused on the problematic aspects of bilateral relations and some international problems. As for bilateral relations, Russia said it was dissatisfied with their current form, but we are ready to continue dialogue and discussion of all the existing problems, whether in the military-political sphere or the humanitarian sphere."
The Ukrainian conflict and Western sanctions were the main topics on the agenda. Following the meeting, Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said that it did not result in a major breakthrough, but sides agreed that bilateral relations must return to normal.
