Kremlin aide says initial Ukraine talks should include only US, Russia, Ukraine

The ​next round ​of ‌talks to ​find a settlement for the conflict ‌in Ukraine should initially be held in a trilateral format with ‌Russia, Ukraine and the ‌United States, Interfax news agency quoted a Kremlin aide as saying ⁠on Sunday.

Asked ​if ⁠Russia believed any European countries should ⁠be involved in negotiations, Kremlin ​aide Yuri Ushakov said: "We have working ⁠contacts with the Americans. Therefore, ⁠it ​is logical, of course, that at least the first ⁠rounds of negotiations should be held ⁠in ⁠a trilateral format."
