Pushkov: US fears Ukrainian crisis will be resolved without its participation

The visit of Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland to Moscow shows the fear of the White House of being outside the peace settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, the head of the Duma's International Affairs Committee Alexei Pushkov said.

"The Obama administration was afraid to stay away from the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, Kerry has just left and  Nuland arrived. Yes, it is impossible to find a solution in Kiev,’’ Gazeta.ru quotes his post on Twitter.
