Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov said on the 26th that it is incorrect to set a specific date to resolve the Russian-Ukrainian conflict; it is inappropriate to give any time limit at present. Ryabkov also believes that the risk of a nuclear conflict has not been eliminated, and Russia is sending a signal to the US that real negotiations are necessary.
