MOSCOW, March 28 (Xinhua) -- Russia is not involved in any ongoing talks about potential peace initiatives in Ukraine, but is monitoring such details, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday.

Earlier in the day, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz mentioned that several countries including Ukraine have been holding discussions at the level of security advisors on initiatives that could potentially lead to a peace process in the Ukraine crisis.

"All of them (these countries) are united in their political will to support Ukraine to the extent possible until the very end," Peskov said, adding the Kremlin is monitoring all of these nuances carefully.

Peskov said the approach of provoking and encouraging Kiev to "fight until the last Ukrainian" dominates in Europe and nothing has changed despite different points of view, with different nuances, in the European political establishment.

Despite the peace plan talks, Germany is pretty involved in the crisis, said the spokesman.

He also added that Moscow sees that French President Emmanuel Macron has taken the most radical position in the crisis, recalling Macron's proposal to send foreign military contingents to Ukraine in February.
