A source close to Moscow’s negotiating team has confirmed that Ukraine invited Russia to hold the next round of talks. “We confirm that,” he told TASS yesterday.
This morning, TASS cites Der Spiegel claiming that the Kiev regime may have coordinated with the U.S. its proposal to hold negotiations with Russia next week. “Agreements with the U.S. may be behind the new Ukrainian proposal,” the magazine said. According to Der Spiegel, a July 14 visit by U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Ukraine Keith Kellogg to Ukraine points to this development of events.
