MOSCOW, (Reuters) – Russian and American officials will immediately follow Tuesday’s two hour call between Joe Biden Presidents Vladimir Putin and Joe Putin regarding Ukraine by having discussions about “this complex and confrontational situation”, said the Kremlin.
Separately, an official of the Russian Foreign Ministry was quoted as saying that the United States may be included in the group of countries that are working together to end the seven-year-old conflict between pro-Russian separatists (Ukraine government forces) and them.
The video chat was characterized by agreement to talk.
The discussion was not a breakthrough. Biden threatened Putin with “strong economic” and other measures if Russia invades. Putin, however, demanded that NATO be limited to the east.
Russia claims it has not threatened its neighbor and that it responds to the menacing actions of NATO and Ukraine.
Dmitry Peskov (Kremlin spokesperson) said, “The presidents have agreed to appoint representatives. They will very promptly start a conversation of this complex confrontational scenario, a topic of strategic security questions on the continent.”
However, he did not provide any details or dates as to when the contacts would occur.
According to RIA News Agency, a Russian official in foreign ministry stated that there is no reason for the United States not joining the Normandy Grouping – which includes Russia, Ukraine and France – which has tried but failed so far to end war in Eastern Ukraine.
The Washington position in the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict will have a significant impact on how much the world reacts. Oleg Krasnitsky quoted Oleg Krasnitsky as saying, “In principle, if America is really willing to make a contribution,”
According to these remarks, Moscow appeared open to an American Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s offer last week to Washington for facilitation talks regarding the fighting that Ukraine claims has resulted in more than 14,000 deaths between 2014 and 2014.
Dmytro Kuleba (Ukraine Foreign Minister) stated that talks between Putin and Biden were for deterrence and deescalation.
However, he stated that Moscow was not the only military power and that the deterrence program should be the top priority.
