MOSCOW, December 16. /TASS/. Russia will not make any concessions regarding Donbass, Novorossiya and Crimea, this is out of the question, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said in an interview with ABC News.
He also noted that Washington is demonstrating a "sober" approach in its relations with Moscow.
TASS has compiled the key statements by the Russian senior diplomat.
Russia is "appreciative" of the efforts being taken by the Trump administration toward a settlement in Ukraine and seeks to put an end to the conflict: "We want to finish this on the premise that is sufficient to sides that are involved."
Moscow does not yet understand the outcome of the negotiations between the Ukrainian, American, and European delegations at the Berlin meeting on the peaceful settlement of the Ukrainian conflict: "We have no idea what transpires there."
