Russia, Ukraine continuing intensive talks in video format - Russian Foreign Ministry

MOSCOW. April 5 (Interfax) - It is too early to talk about a possible meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba before the text of a final document is agreed upon, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andriy Rudenko said.

"Intensive negotiations with the Ukrainian side are ongoing for the time being. Until the text of a final document is agreed upon, it would be premature to speak about any official meeting," Rudenko said when asked about the possibility of a meeting between Lavrov and Kuleba.

Lavrov and Kuleba had a meeting in Turkey's Antalya, attended also by the Turkish foreign minister, on March 10.
