Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said her country is ready to talk to the United States about a peace initiative discussed between the US and Ukraine.
This was as she said contacts could take place on Thursday.
Ukraine, after talks with top US diplomats in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, said it was ready to accept a 30-day ceasefire and the United States said it was putting the proposal to Moscow.
“We are ready to discuss the initiatives set out there in future contacts with the United States. Such contacts are already possible as early as today,” Zakharova said.
Meanwhile, the Kremlin said earlier that US negotiators were flying to Russia.
It said its foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov and US National Security Adviser Mike Waltz had spoken by phone on Wednesday.
