> Dmitry Peskov said the timing of a possible phone call between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump has not been set, but there has been no delay in arranging it. He said Moscow appreciates India’s interest in resolving the Ukraine conflict, while no peaceful settlement is currently in sight. Russia says any deal must be comprehensive and durable, and that a temporary halt or freeze would not resolve the conflict.
