The Prime Minister emphasised the importance of maintaining a joint approach on this issue and ensuring that the bulk of sanctions, including core measures on oil, remain in place.<\/p>\n<p>They also discussed Syria and how they could keep working together, with international partners, to find a political solution to end the conflict. The Prime Minister noted the need for progress towards a transitional authority and to continue promptly with the process of destroying Syria\u2019s chemical weapons.<\/p>\n<p>On Ukraine, they agreed that it is in the interests of both Europe and Russia that Ukraine has a peaceful and prosperous future and that we should work together to encourage the Ukrainian authorities to pursue a path that avoids further violence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">Finally, the Prime Minister wished President Putin a safe and successful Winter Olympics.
