No agreement has been reached on the tripartite meeting on Ukraine so far - senior diplomat

According to Sergei Ryabkov, without sufficient pressure on Kyiv, no progress will be made

Moscow, October 13. /TASS/. Sergei Ryabkov, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia, said: "No agreement has yet been reached on the tripartite meeting of Ukraine with representatives of Russia, the United States, and Ukraine."

"I have nothing to add to what our leadership and the foreign minister have said about trilateral meetings as a format. As far as I understand, there is no specific agreement on this," he told reporters.

"Whether the chances will increase depends first of all on the position of those who have influence over Kyiv. Without sufficient pressure on Kyiv, there will be no progress," he added.
