MOSCOW, May 28 (Bernama-TASS) -- A personal meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky remains possible, but it must follow progress in negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.

“There are no changes in the position on the principal possibility of such a meeting,” Peskov told reporters in response to a TASS news agency’s question.

He stressed, however, that such a meeting should be the outcome of concrete agreements between the two delegations, not held in isolation.

Meanwhile, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow has reiterated its demands during recent talks in Istanbul for discriminatory Ukrainian laws to be repealed.

“When these talks resumed in Istanbul on May 16, we demanded that all those discriminatory laws be abolished, and we will continue to do so at the next round of direct talks, to be announced soon,” Lavrov said.

He made the remarks at an international meeting of senior officials in charge of security issues.
