MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Relations between Moscow and Kiev rapidly deteriorated following the reunification of Crimea with Russia in 2014 and the escalation of the Ukrainian crisis later that year.
"Cooperation with the Verkhovna Rada will undoubtedly be restored, but I don't think this can happen with its current composition," Naryshkin said, noting that not all political forces are represented in the current Ukrainian parliament.
"But we are in contact with a number of Verkhovna Rada members and there will be more of this. I am certain that sooner or later, but with a different Rada composition, we will cooperate, work together, engage in interparliamentary dialogue worthy of two major European countries," he added.
