French President Emmanuel Macron has told reporters that President Vladimir Putin assured him that Russian forces would not ramp up the crisis near Ukraine's borders.
"I secured an assurance there would be no deterioration or escalation," he said before meeting Ukraine's leader.
However, Russia said any suggestion of a guarantee was "not right".
He also said there was a "shared determination" to implement the Minsk agreement. Any resolution to the crisis could take months, he said, but he repeated that Mr Putin had told him he would not be behind any escalation.
