While Moscow and Washington are ready to resolve the situation in Ukraine, much work on technical issues awaits them, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russian media outlet TASS.
When asked to comment on US President Donald Trump's statements regarding the contours of a peace agreement, Peskov said that both sides were in favor of peace.
"Both sides are clearly willing to move towards peace and they have a common understanding here. Overall, many, many aspects of the peace process will certainly need to be addressed ," he said.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has held at least two phone calls with Trump, the Kremlin reported, in February and March. The talks focused on moves to restore relations between Russia and the United States, with the two leaders also discussing efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. Moscow supported Washington's initiative for a ceasefire, including in the Black Sea, but said several important issues would need to be resolved.
