ST. PETERSBURG (Sputnik) - Russia sees dualism in US President Donald Trump's position on the Ukrainian conflict, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Sunday.
"We see such dualism in the American position. On the one hand, they supply weapons to Ukraine, although President Trump says, 'We don't know who we're supplying to, we're supplying to NATO, and everything else is none of our business,'" Peskov told reporters.
On the other hand, the US sincerely declares its readiness to facilitate a peaceful resolution, Peskov added. "This is where, of course, we're impressed, and we're using our readiness to support this," he stressed.

Trump Says End of Ukraine Conflict Closer Than People Realize
He added that Russia’s reaction to possible new proposals and formulas for a Ukrainian settlement will depend on how closely they align with Russia's interests.
"We've heard statements about the possibility of some new formulas. This remains to be seen. We know that Zelensky will be speaking with US officials in America," Peskov said.
He noted that Russia is maintaining channels of dialogue with American negotiators. "And over time, some formulas and proposals will probably be announced. From then on, everything will depend on how closely they align with our interests," he pointed out.
Separately, Peskov underscored that the Russian Armed Forces are crippling Ukraine's military potential, reducing its ability to commit terrorist attacks against Russia.
