The Kremlin said on Tuesday it still saw no grounds for peace talks with Ukraine.
Asked about a German media report that talks could begin in July, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that at the moment there was no sign of any of the prerequisites for such talks being in place.
Moscow had said in the past that any peace talks must take account of the "new realities" - a reference to four Ukrainian regions which Moscow says are now part of Russia - something Ukraine and the West reject.
Kyiv has said it will not negotiate with Moscow until the last Russian soldier has left Ukraine.
