The first round of talks between Ukrainian and Russian delegations held at the border with Belarus has ended, Al Jazeera reports.
The outcome of the negotiations was not made public. The talks carried on for several hours and broke down twice, al Jazeera’s Jonah Hull said, adding that the length of the meeting “suggests they had something to talk about.”
Negotiators from Ukraine and Russia will return to their capital cities for consultations. The Russian delegation head, Vladimir Medinsky, said the two sides had “agreed to keep the negotiations going.”
