"As for some kind of an OSCE 'armed' police mission -- I want to emphasize that only small firearms were discussed -- indeed, President Putin responded with a potential agreement to the eventual idea of [deploying] such a mission," Peskov said.
"But the fact is that this is just the eventual talks. So far, there is no mission and no understanding by the OSCE how this mission can be formed and where to deploy it, and so on. There were no talks about this, and they could not be carried out because it is a very substantive discussion, which depends on many factors," he said.

Answering the clarifying question of an UNIAN correspondent, whether Moscow would agree to the deployment of the OSCE armed mission at the uncontrolled section of the Ukrainian-Russian border, Peskov said: "Nobody has said where such a mission could be deployed, [as] it does not exist yet."
As UNIAN reported earlier, on October 19 talks were held in Berlin between President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
