Peskov made the remarks in response to a question from AFP.
“This is impossible,” Peskov said, reiterating Moscow's position that a meeting between the two leaders could take place in the Russian capital.
Peskov also said on September 8 that Russia remained ready for a peaceful settlement of the conflict, but argued that the possibility of reaching such a settlement depended on the Ukrainian authorities.
