The United States is discussing with the aggressor country of russia the exclusion of the adviser to the russian dictator, vladimir medinsky, from the negotiating group on Ukraine.
Bloomberg reported this with reference to its own sources.
According to the agency, American officials, during their conversations with russian representatives, make it clear that they would like to avoid Medinsky's participation in future meetings.
Bloomberg's interlocutors said that the Americans do not want Ukrainian representatives to meet with hardliners.
As we will recall, bilateral talks between Ukraine and russia took place on May 16 in Istanbul (Turkey). The russian delegation at the meeting was headed by the adviser to the russian dictator, Vladimir Medinsky.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, according to Western media, russia demanded during the talks in Istanbul to transfer control over four regions of Ukraine.
At the same time, during the negotiations, the russians allegedly threatened to seize the Kharkiv and Sumy Regions if Ukraine did not agree to Moscow's current demands.
Also, according to media reports, the head of the russian delegation, Medinsky, stated that russia was allegedly ready to fight forever.
