MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Tuesday a ceasefire in eastern Ukraine was being observed "in general" and that Moscow hoped talks on the status of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions would begin soon.

At a news conference with his Malian counterpart Abdoulaye Diop, Lavrov also said that Moscow was concerned by the buildup of Ukrainian troops in certain parts of eastern Ukraine, which could suggest they were readying a strike group.
