The countries of the so-called "Normandy Four" are interested in holding a top-level meeting on the Ukrainian settlement which will produce results; however, there are as yet no preconditions for such negotiations, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Monday.

"Regarding that, certainly, all "Normandy Four" countries are interested in holding such a fruitful meeting, it is true," he said.

"The preconditions for such a meeting will emerge only if the Ukrainian side displays determination to take the steps which are clearly specified in the Minsk agreements. Unfortunately, they do not display such determination," he said, adding that not having "any tangible prospects for productivity, holding of a top-level meeting is hardly possible."

When asked whether such a meeting is possible before the NATO summit in July, Peskov replied "there are no preconditions for it yet."

Several Western media reported earlier that the meeting of the leaders of the "Normandy Four" countries (Ukraine, France, Russia, Germany) may allegedly take place in early July prior to the NATO summit in Warsaw.
