According to Reuters, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed on Saturday to hold further talks about events in the Kerch Strait. Russia is resisting international calls to release three Ukrainian naval ships that its border patrols fired on and seized in the strait near Russian-annexed Crimea last weekend. Merkel voiced her concern about the situation when she met Putin on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Buenos Aires.
