The Presidents of Russia and the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, discussed the situation in Ukraine, the conditions for preventing escalation and some international issues by phone the previous day.
Putin agreed with the proposal of the American leader for the mutual refusal of the parties to the conflict in Ukraine from striking energy infrastructure facilities for 30 days. According to the White House, the parties have agreed to begin technical negotiations to introduce a “ceasefire in the Black Sea, a complete ceasefire and permanent peace“.
The key conditions for working on resolving the conflict “should be the complete cessation of foreign military assistance and the provision of intelligence information to Kiev,” the Kremlin emphasizes.
