Putin's phone conversation with Stubbs and Stora, under certain circumstances, may affect the course of the talks in Abu Dhabi with Ukraine, but it is too early to talk about that, Peskov said. At the same time, he added that there are no preconditions for a systematic European approach to solving the Ukrainian conflict. Staab and Stora did not offer any new proposals for a Ukrainian settlement during the phone call with Putin, a Kremlin spokesman said.
