Active preparations are underway for the meeting of the advisors to the countries' leaders.
The meeting of foreign ministers of the Normandy Four (Ukraine, Germany, France, and Russia) will be held in September, after the advisors to the countries' leaders meet, says Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba.
"The plan is for the foreign ministers to meet after the advisors to the Normandy format leaders meet," Kuleba told an online briefing on Friday, September 4, according to an UNIAN correspondent.
Active preparations are underway for the advisors' meeting, Kuleba added.

"As soon as the advisors meet, we will see how this meeting will go and what results will be achieved. I think that if nothing wrong happens at this meeting, nothing of force majeure nature, then conditions will be created for a foreign affairs ministerial to be held," he said.
"Both I and the German and French colleagues are disposed to hold the meeting in September, and as far as my colleagues have informed me, the Russian minister, Sergei Lavrov, has no objections to such a meeting either," Kuleba said.
