Russia's foreign ministry is drafting a peace memorandum to outline principles and timelines for a potential settlement in Ukraine.
MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russia is continuing to work on the draft memorandum setting out the principles of a possible future peace accord to end the war in Ukraine, Russia's foreign ministry said on Tuesday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, after a call with U.S. President Donald Trump earlier this month, said that Moscow was ready to work with Ukraine on a memorandum about a future peace accord.
Putin said the memorandum would define the principles of a possible settlement, the timing of a possible peace agreement and details about a possible ceasefire.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said work was continuing on the Russian draft and that once the document was ready it would be handed over to Ukraine.
"Russia continues to develop a draft memorandum on a future peace treaty, defining a number of positions, such as the principles of settlement, the timing of a possible peace agreement, and a potential ceasefire for a certain amount of time if appropriate agreements are reached," she said.
