“Indeed, any agreement, it has this or that flexibility, because some things written on paper can be interpreted by the parties differently,” Putin said.

He noted that the parties can interpret paragraphs of the Minsk agreements of 2015 in different ways, while there is no alternative to them.

“For this we are going to, to come to a common understanding, to a single standard in the so-called legal technique. But I also agree that there is no other alternative than the Minsk agreements, and everything needs to be done so that they are fully implemented, ”he said.

Putin also said that the work of the leaders of the "Norman Four" was very useful.
