In statements reported by the Russian news agency TASS, Lavrov said, "US President Donald Trump indicated in his statements that an agreement has been concluded, and we are ready to reach an agreement, but there are still some specific points, elements of this agreement, that require scrutiny, and we are working on this delicate process."
He added, "There are several indications that we are moving in the right direction," at a time when the US President's arduous negotiations over the Crimean issue are witnessing tension.
