The Xinhua reported, Russian President Vladimir Putin informed British Prime Minister Boris Johnson of his assessments of the current situation in Ukraine during a phone call on Monday.

Putin also pointed to the "discrimination against the Russian-speaking population" in Ukraine.

He underlined the need to immediately begin negotiations on clear and internationally legal agreements against the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's further eastward expansion and against the deployment of weapons in Russia's neighbors, primarily Ukraine.

Putin added, the Russian side will present draft documents on this issue.
