Germany Opposes Ukraine's Plan to Involve US, UN Into Peace Talks

The German Foreign Ministry spoke against straying from the Normandy format talks on the Ukrainian crisis.
 
 Ukrainian peace negotiations should continue in the so-called Normandy format (Ukraine, Russia, Germany, France) and not be expanded to include other international players, Germany's Foreign Ministry said Friday.

"We have a feeling that work should continue in the Normandy format," ministry spokesman Martin Schaefer told RIA Novosti, commenting on a recent statement by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that peace talks should include the United States and the European Union.
