The parliamentarian also admitted that it could be difficult to find an agreement with the Ukrainian side, which also makes comments and assessments of the negotiations premature.

"Maybe the presidents of Russia and the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, have plans for a telephone conversation. Maybe we haven't reached an agreement with Ukraine. Maybe the parties don't want to make any statements until the process is brought to a logical conclusion," Zhurova said.
