克里姆林宫周三表示，俄罗斯出席在阿布扎比举行的最新一轮美国斡旋的乌克兰和平谈判的代表团，未与同样因谈判前往阿联酋的欧洲代表进行任何接触。
The Kremlin said Wednesday that Russia's delegation to the latest round of US-mediated Ukraine peace talks in Abu Dhabi had held no contacts with European representatives who also traveled to the United Arab Emirates amid the negotiations.
当被问及俄罗斯代表团在重启谈判的第一天是否与欧洲官员会面时，克里姆林宫发言人德米特里·佩斯科夫对记者表示：“没有，此类接触既未安排，也未打算进行，而且没有发生任何此类接触。”
“No, such contacts were not planned, were not intended, and no such contacts took place,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters when asked whether the Russian delegation had met European officials during the first day of renewed talks.
俄罗斯和乌克兰周二在阿联酋首都开始新一轮美国斡旋的和平谈判，周三讨论进入第二天。
Russia and Ukraine began a new round of US-mediated peace negotiations in the Emirati capital Tuesday, with discussions resuming for a second day Wednesday.
这是自2月在瑞士日内瓦举行谈判以来的首次三方会谈，此前已于1月和2月在阿布扎比举行了两轮会谈。
The latest meetings are the first trilateral talks since negotiations in Geneva, Switzerland, in February, which followed two earlier rounds hosted by Abu Dhabi in January and February.
会谈开始前，乌克兰代表和美国特使在阿布扎比分别会见了英国、法国、德国、意大利、北约和欧盟委员会的代表。
Ahead of the talks, Ukrainian delegates and US envoys met separately in Abu Dhabi with representatives of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, NATO and the European Commission.
佩斯科夫表示，俄罗斯代表团一直向总统弗拉基米尔·普京通报谈判进展。
Peskov said the Russian delegation was keeping President Vladimir Putin informed of developments in the negotiations.
他还说，普京周二在莫斯科会见白俄罗斯总统亚历山大·卢卡申科时，“以某种方式”讨论了阿布扎比会谈，并称双方的讨论内容广泛。
He added that the Abu Dhabi talks had been discussed “one way or another” during Putin's meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in Moscow on Tuesday, describing their discussions as wide-ranging.
佩斯科夫还表示，莫斯科未收到奥斯陆方面提出的让普京与挪威首相约纳斯·加尔·斯特勒再次通电话的请求。
Peskov also said Moscow had received no request from Oslo for another phone conversation between Putin and Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store.
斯特勒和芬兰总统亚历山大·斯图布上月末主动发起了一次与普京的电话通话。
Store and Finnish President Alexander Stubb initiated a phone call with Putin late last month.
在评论英国与联合远征军其他成员国周二签署的一项海事协议时，佩斯科夫表示，莫斯科将评估其潜在影响，然后再确定立场。
Commenting on a maritime agreement signed Tuesday between the UK and other members of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), Peskov said Moscow would assess its potential implications before determining its position.
“这一伙伴关系仍需分析，以确定这些计划可能如何影响我国的利益。分析完成后，我们将能够制定立场。”英国国防部周二宣布，JEF成员已签署一项“北方海军倡议”协议，旨在加强海上合作。
“This partnership still needs to be analyzed to determine how these plans might affect our country’s interests. Once that analysis is complete, we will be in a position to formulate a stance.”The UK Defense Ministry announced Tuesday that JEF members had signed a “Northern Navies Initiative” agreement aimed at strengthening maritime cooperation.
该部表示，该倡议将“提升北欧、北大西洋和波罗的海地区的安全”。JEF是一个多国军事伙伴关系，成员包括丹麦、爱沙尼亚、芬兰、冰岛、拉脱维亚、立陶宛、荷兰、挪威、瑞典和英国。
The ministry said the initiative would “increase security across northern Europe, the North Atlantic and Baltic Sea.”The JEF is a multinational military partnership comprising Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and the UK.
