MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia is ready to consider any "realistic" peace initiative on the conflict in Ukraine which takes into account Russia's own interests and the situation on the ground, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Thursday.

"We are open to negotiations, we are ready to consider any realistic, non-politicised initiative - of course," Zakharova said, adding that Russia would only consider a settlement "which was based on taking into account our interests".
