ST. PETERSBURG, October 21. /TASS/. The new approaches from Europe and Ukraine - formulated following talks in Oslo and relayed to Russian President Vladimir Putin by the US leader’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff - contain little that is actually useful for reaching a settlement, Russian Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov has told the media.
He diplomat specified that Witkoff had briefed President Putin on the new approaches from Europe and Ukraine regarding a settlement, which had taken shape during the Oslo negotiations.
"In the context of resolving the Ukrainian crisis, there was not much of use in them," Ushakov noted.
