MOSCOW. April 15 (Interfax) - The proposal for a global ceasefire, which will enable all countries to concentrate on fighting coronavirus, is being considered at the working level, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
"Obviously, it is being discussed at the working level before joining in. Our diplomats are at work," Peskov told the press in his comments on the proposal made by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.
"Relevant statements will be made as soon as this work is done and [the issue] is coordinated with other partners," he said.
French President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday he was expecting Russian President Vladimir Putin to support his initiative for a global ceasefire amid the coronavirus pandemic.
