Russia Says it is Open to Considering New Ideas on Ukraine Peace Process

Russia is open to considering new ideas and proposals related to the Ukraine peace process, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Monday. She made the comments after a Ukrainian source told Reuters last week that US and Ukrainian officials had been discussing a proposal for an air ceasefire to take to Russian counterparts as part of a new round of peace talks, Reuters reported. The Kremlin said earlier on Monday that it had not seen any specific information regarding new peace proposals ahead of a planned meeting on Tuesday in Washington between US. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
