    Russia says talk of a ceasefire, rather than a full peace deal, in Ukraine is simply not serious

    -

    MOSCOW, Jan ​14 (Reuters) - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday ⁠that Russia was open for peace talks on Ukraine ‍but that talk of a ceasefire ​ahead of a full peace deal was simply not serious. 

    Asked about ​a Bloomberg report that White House envoy Steve Witkoff and U.S. President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner ‌are seeking to travel to ‌Moscow to meet Russian President Vladimir ​Putin, Lavrov said that Putin had repeatedly said he ‌is open to serious discussions ⁠about peace in Ukraine. 

    It would, ‌Lavrov said, ​be helpful if Washington briefed Moscow on the latest peace ⁠proposals for ⁠Ukraine.
