Kremlin on final document of Normandy Quartet’s summit

Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the nature of the final document that may be agreed at the summit of the Normandy Quartet in Paris on December 9 has not been determined yet, but its text is being drafted.

"Coordination of some text goes on. What kind of document there will be is yet to be decided," the spokesman concluded.

A Normandy Quartet summit devoted to the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis will be held in Paris on December 9. Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron will take part.
