Peskov: the claim that Moscow rejected the peace plan is wrong
Reuters reported that Ukraine's chief negotiator Rustem Umerov is scheduled to hold talks with European representatives in Brussels on Wednesday and may then travel to the United States for meetings.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday that the claim that Moscow has rejected the US peace plan for Ukraine is incorrect. He argued that Russia was ready to continue talks. Advisor to the Russian leader, Yuri Ushakov, said that so far it has not been possible to reach a compromise version of the peace plan. — Some American proposals are acceptable, but they need work. The others that have been presented to us are unacceptable, Ushakov said.
