"The international community must support peace talks between Russia and Ukraine so that they could achieve significant results promptly, and facilitate the fastest possible defusing of the situation," he said during the meeting with UN national Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in Rome Monday, according to Xinhua.
The Russian-Ukrainian talks continued in video format on March 14. The Russian delegation is led by Russian Presidential Aide Vladimir Medinsky.
