The Kremlin rejected the reports that during the meeting of the Normandy Four in Berlin, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko allegedly improperly addressed the Russian president, demanding that the shelling of Ukrainian troops be stopped.

"There was no heated discussion. The conversation was certainly difficult but also quite business-like and constructive enough," Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov told reporters

"So this information does not reflect the reality," he said.
