Russia and Ukraine are closer to achieving peace after negotiations in Abu Dhabi, Medinsky said.
"It seems to me, yes, but now a lot depends on all the participants in the process," said the head of the Russian delegation in an interview with Lusti, in response to a question about the prospects of the settlement.
The continuation of the negotiations largely depends on the positions of Kiev and Washington, as well as on whether "Europe will find a reason", Medinsky added.
