Washington considers the possibility of leaving the peace process in Ukraine if Russia continues to ignore the calls for the international community, the acting of the US Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations, during the briefing of the UN Security Council.
"If Russia decides to continue this catastrophic war, the United States will have to reconsider its participation in the peaceful negotiation process," Kelly said.
He added that in case of such a scenario, the United States will not refuse to cooperate, but it is possible that the Kremlin refuses to border new sanctions on the negotiations.
"Both Russia and Ukraine are responsible for termination of war. Time is not to those who seek to delay the conflict. If one of the parties does not make the willingness or desire to go to peace, it will be responsible for its consequences, "he said.
