MOSCOW, March 19 (Reuters) - Peace talks between the United States, Russia and Ukraine are on pause amid the Iran war, Izvestia reported on Thursday, citing Russian officials.
Izvestia said the Kremlin had confirmed the pause and that the Iran war could push Kyiv towards compromise.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russian presidential envoy Kirill Dmitriev would continue working on investment and economic cooperation but the trilateral talks were on pause.
"Kirill Dmitriev continues work. The trilateral group is on pause," Peskov was quoted as saying by Izvestia.
