Kremlin declines to comment on reported Ukraine de-escalation talks with US officials

The Kremlin on Monday declined to comment on a Wall Street Journal report that Washington held undisclosed talks with top Russian officials about avoiding further escalation in the Ukraine war.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that while Russia remains “open” to talks, it is unable to negotiate with Kyiv due to its refusal to hold talks with Russia.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan held undisclosed talks with top Russian officials in the hope of reducing the risk the war in Ukraine spills over or escalates into a nuclear conflict.

  1. There are a lot of fakes in western newspapers, this needs to be taken into consideration, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday, commenting on media reports on confidential talks between Russia-US senior officials.

    Earlier in the day, the Wall Street Journal newspaper, reported, citing sources, that US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan has been conducting confidential talks in recent months with Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov and Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev.

    "We have nothing to say about this report. Many 'fakes' are published by Anglo-Saxon newspapers. Therefore, in this case you need to contact either the newspaper or the White House," Peskov told reporters.
