According to him, Russia cannot and does not want to determine who should be included in the delegation from Europe. He described framing the question in such a way as incorrect.
“We cannot and do not want to set conditions regarding their negotiating group. Framing the question like that is absolutely incorrect,” Peskov said.
Commenting on reports of the Russian side agreeing to allow EU representatives to attend the next round of talks on Ukraine, Peskov stated that Moscow should discuss their position with the Europeans and understand to what extent it could contribute to resolving the conflict.
