Russian President Vladimir Putin believes any top-level meeting must be carefully prepared, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
"Putin does not rule out the possibility of such a meeting, but he believes that any top-level talks should be well prepared in order to finalise groundwork that must first be done at the expert level. So far, it cannot be said that the expert work is, let’s say, active. Unfortunately, no," Peskov said in response to a question from Sputnik.
Peskov noted that Russia maintains its interest and readiness for such negotiations.
“All our positions have been communicated; the relevant drafts, let’s say the main provisions, were handed over to the Ukrainian side in writing. Yes, these are initial positions, and further discussion is needed. That is the state of affairs at the moment,” he added.
The conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump in Alaska was necessary, timely and constructive, Peskov said.
"In general, I want to confirm that the conversation was necessary, and the president himself spoke about it, President Putin. It was timely, it was informative and very constructive," Peskov told reporters. ​
Kremlin is deliberately not disclosing all the details of the Putin-Trump conversation in Alaska, Peskov said.
"The topic of the Ukrainian settlement was discussed in depth, but we believe that it is completely inappropriate to disclose any details," Peskov added.
