The foreign ministers of Russia, Germany, France and Ukraine have discussed ways of contributing to the peace process in the southeast of Ukraine as part of the Minsk agreements, the TASS cited the Russian Foreign Ministry as saying on Friday.
The sides have also discussed a timeframe for further consultations in the Normandy format at different levels, the ministry said.
The so-called Normandy format was established in June when Russian President Vladimir Putin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko discussed the Ukrainian crisis on the sidelines of the celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the D-Day in Normandy, France.
