Slutsky: Negotiations with Ukraine are proceeding with difficulty

Moscow, SANA- Chairman of the State Duma’s Committee on International Affairs of Russia and one of the participants of talks with Ukraine Leonid Slutsky said that negotiation process with Ukrainian side is difficult.

Russia Today website quoted Slutsky as saying in a statement on Thursday that “Kyiv’s representatives “backpedal” after reaching agreements.”

He stressed that the Russian delegation is trying to do everything possible not just in terms of supporting a special military operation, but also in the negotiation process.

The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, underlined a few days ago that the US and Britain were putting pressure on the authorities of the regime in Ukraine to prolong negotiations with Moscow.
