Office of Ukrainian president: Talks with Russia may take place on March 2

Oleksiy Arestovich, an advisor of the head of the Ukrainian president's office, said the second round of talks between Ukraine and Russia on a truce deal might be held on March 2.

Arestovich said that the composition of both delegations would not change. Ukraine will continue to insist on its positions.

Earlier, Foreign Minister Kuleba said that Ukraine would not accept Russia’s ultimatums.

The first round of talks took place on February 28, where the sides discussed their requirements and looked for common grounds.

Ukraine is demanding an immediate ceasefire and the withdrawal of Russian troops from the country. Requirements of the Russian Federation include non-bloc status of Ukraine, recognition of the 'LPR' within the borders of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, "denazification" and renunciation of claims to the Crimea.
