Moscow is ready for talks on the Ukraine conflict in any format to ensure progress in reconciliation efforts, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — According to the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, the leaders of Russia, Germany, France and Ukraine, the so-called Normandy Four countries, have no immediate plans to hold another summit as ceasefire violations continue. However, Moscow is ready for talks in any format.

“We cannot exclude any formats. Both President [Vladimir] Putin and Foreign Minister [Sergei] Lavrov have stated that the Russian side is ready for all formats in order to achieve at least some results on Ukrainian conflict settlement,” Peskov told reporters.

The quartet’s last summit in February resulted in the signing of the Minsk II peace deal.

"There are no talks about this yet," Peskov said, responding to a question of whether another such meeting could take place.

“We note attacks by the armed forces of Ukraine on Donbass settlements, which by the way leads to almost daily casualties,” he added.
