"We have seen public comments and signals, including from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and we believe that this is part of the communication strategy. That is, by sending such signals publicly, the American side is trying to stimulate the peace process, that is, to speed it up in this way. We consider it in this context, and we have not received any official diplomatic information, correspondence or notes, or anything official-diplomatic through closed channels about preparing to withdraw from the peace process. And we treat this normally, as signals that are designed to speed up the process," the Foreign Ministry spokesman explained.
