Moscow’s chief negotiator, Vladimir Medinsky, told Russian media the Ukrainian delegation has left the capital city of Kyiv and that Russian troops are providing a security corridor for the delegates.
Russia’s foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said earlier on Wednesday that Moscow remains committed to the “demilitarisation” of Ukraine and added there should be a list of specified weapons that can never be deployed on Ukrainian territory.
But he said that Vladimir Putin’s regime recognised the Ukrainian people’s right to chose their own leader and that Russia accepts Volodymyr Zelensky as the legitimate president.
