A meeting of the foreign chiefs of Normandy Format (Germany, France, Ukraine and Russia) is not on the immediate agenda, Foreign Minister of Ukraine Pavlo Klimkin has said.

"We didn't fix a specific day. We need to understand, whether the Russian side is ready to discuss definite proposals," Klimkin told the journalists following the government's sitting on Wednesday.

He noted that Ukraine waits for the response on the proposal, which have been advanced at the next meeting in Paris. The proposals cover withdrawal of troops, setting up a security zone, rendering full access to the OSCE observers, as well as Ukrainian-Russian border control and many others.

"So, there have been no specific responses in Paris so far, and it would be difficult to schedule another meeting without a response," the minister said. He added that a meeting would take place only if it made sense to meet.
