MOSCOW: Russia will study the project on possible resumption of the grain deal, which has been passed on by Turkey, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, adding that previous agreements did not meet Moscow’s conditions.
"President [of Russia Vladimir Putin] has said that such an unofficial document, a draft document on a possible discussion of a repeated attempt (of the grain deal - TASS) in the future has been passed on by the Turkish side," he said. "Our respective agencies and specialists are currently studying the document and positions on that matter will be reported to the president," Peskov added.
"The previous experience was not as successful and what was to be done for us was not done," he noted.
"This is obvious to everyone, all recognize it," the spokesman said. "This means that the deal was fulfilled as such, though it has not worked as a deal," he said.
Earlier, Putin said in an interview on Rossiya-1 television made overnight into Friday that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan presented new proposals for dialogue with Kiev regarding shipping in the Black Sea at a meeting in Kazan this week.
