Contacts in Ukraine are maintained by Russia and the United States at a high level, they are discussing Donbass

“We are in contact with the Americans. This is being carried out at a high level,” he said.

According to him, Washington expressed its concern to Moscow about the next escalation of the conflict in Donbass, to which “we told them in response that this concern was groundless.”

Ryabkov, commenting on the pulling together of Russian troops to the border of Ukraine, stressed that the Russian army is carrying out on its territory the measures it considers necessary.

“And some American signals have nothing to do with this. We can say that we completely ignore these signals,” Ryabkov added.
