Kremlin says contacts with Trump's team intensified over Ukraine, Nato

Russia said on Wednesday that contacts with US President Donald Trump's team were intensifying, and praised Trump for earlier remarks Moscow said amounted to an acknowledgment that it was a mistake for the West to draw Ukraine towards NATO.
Trump, who has promised to end the war in Ukraine but has not yet set out in public how he would do so, said on Tuesday the war was a bloodbath and that his team had had "some very good talks".
The Kremlin said that there had been contacts that were intensifying.
"I can say here that there are indeed contacts between individual departments, and they have intensified recently," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. "I can't tell you any other details."
