Russia maintains new contacts with the US after analyzing the peace plan for Ukraine

Russian authorities reported this Friday that they have maintained new contacts with the United States during the last few hours after analyzing the latest draft of the peace plan for Ukraine, the details of which were revealed on Wednesday by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Kremlin spokesman Dimitri Peskov indicated in a press conference that Russian presidential advisor Yuri Ushakov had a telephone conversation with American representatives to address this issue, according to information collected by the Russian news agency Interfax.

“After (Russian special envoy) Kirill Dimitriev informed the president (Vladimir Putin) of the results of his trip to the United States and his conversations with the Americans, the information has been analyzed and contacts have been maintained,” he explained.

Furthermore, he stated that “it has been agreed to continue with the contacts.” “I can say that Yuri Ushakov has represented the Russian Administration during these conversations. There were several interlocutors on the White House side,” he stressed.

On the other hand, he has accused Ukraine of “using various tricks to obtain money from the West.” “We see how they use all kinds of tricks, but we have not yet heard anything about holding elections,” he said.
