“Vladimir Putin also informed the Russian and Ukrainian representatives about the state of affairs at the talks,” the Kremlin website said in a statement.
The parties also discussed Russia's efforts to ensure the safety of civilians in Ukraine and Donbass, including the organization of humanitarian corridors.
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, noted earlier that Ukrainian negotiators are trying to delay the negotiation process by refusing to take a constructive approach on priority issues.
In addition, according to her, representatives of the Kyiv regime refute the positions of their negotiators.
