MOSCOW, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on Wednesday that the impetus to find a Ukrainian peace deal which emerged after the summit between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in August had proven to be exhausted.
Ryabkov also said the potential appearance of U.S. Tomahawk missiles in Ukraine would mean a 'qualitative' change in the situation, Interfax quoted him as saying.
Trump said earlier this week that he would want to know what Ukraine planned to do with Tomahawks before agreeing to provide them because he did not want to escalate the war between Russia and Ukraine.
