Russia and Ukraine continue to coordinate dates for a new round of negotiations in Istanbul and are awaiting proposals on timelines from each other, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday.
There are no difficulties in the process, he asserted during a press briefing in Moscow.
"There are no 'blockages'; we just need to complete all procedures for coordination. Each side is waiting for timeline proposals," explained the official.
As for the memorandum in which both parties outlined their visions for a peace treaty, Moscow does not publicly talk about its contents because it has yet to be discussed with their Ukrainian counterparts, he emphasized.
"We believe that discussing through the media could only harm the process," he said.
As for the suspension of US arms deliveries to Kyiv, Moscow closely monitors the situation, he noted.
“It seems that the industry alone cannot keep up with producing missiles in sufficient quantities, especially considering how many shipments have already been made and are still ongoing to Israel and Ukraine. Certain problems exist here," he said.
According to the spokesman, the fewer weapons that reach Ukraine, the sooner Russia will complete its "special military operation."
"The fewer rockets that arrive from abroad, the closer the end of the special military operation," he said.

Now that the ethnic Russian provinces have been liberated ( Lughansk 100 percent, Donetsk 95 percent, etc…) I expect Vlad to slow walk to the negotiations. Meanwhile, Vlad continues gobbling up town after town.
His stated goals are almost met.
“ Russia Takes Full Control of Ukraine’s Luhansk Region…”
The only ethnic Russian province is Crimea. The others have ethnic Ukrainian majorities. Of course you know this but still falsely claim that Donetsk and Luhansk are ethnically Russian oblasts. Why? And what about Kherson and Zaporizhzhia?
