ISTANBUL: Turkey's foreign minister said in an interview published on Sunday that Russia and Ukraine were nearing agreement on"critical" issues and he was hopeful for a ceasefire if the two sides did not backtrack from progress achieved so far.

Turkish presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin, speaking to al Jazeera television, said the two sides were getting closer on four key issues. Kyiv and Moscow reported some progress in talks last week toward a political formula that would guarantee Ukraine's security, while keeping it outside NATO, though each sides accused the other of dragging matters out.

Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula from Ukraine in 2014 while part of the eastern industrial Donbas region was seized by Russian-backed separatist forces that year.
