The Russian delegation says it will be waiting for the Ukrainian side at the place of negotiations on Wednesday afternoon.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov disclosed this to reporters Wednesday morning.

“So, this afternoon, probably in the evening, our delegation will be on the spot waiting for Ukrainian negotiators,” Mr Peskov said.

“Our delegation will be ready to continue the conversation tonight.

“And everything else is controversial.”

The spokesman refused to specify the place of the talks, expressing hope that Ukrainian negotiators would come to talks. 

He however claimed there has been contradictory reports on the negotiations.

“There really is a certain element of contradictory information.

“But I will tell you which part does not refer to contradictory information.”
