The Verkhovna Rada supports the idea of ??transferring negotiations on the Donbass from the capital of Belarus to another place. This was stated by the first vice-speaker of the Ukrainian parliament Irina Gerashchenko. "For a long time for this I speak," wrote Gerashchenko in Facebook. - Repeatedly publicly expressed disagreement and indignation with the voting of Belarus in the UN on all issues relating to Ukraine, "the MP affirmed the argument, adding that" the reference to the neutral status of Belarus does not stand up to any criticism ". How does the position of Minsk in international organizations influence the decisions of the tripartite contact group on the Donbass, where Belarus does not belong, the deputy did not explain. Apparently, in her head firmly sits a Russian proverb that "houses and walls help". However, she does not have one. On the eve of Ukraine's permanent representative to the UN, Vladimir Yelchenko recalled on local television that Belarus "chronically votes in the UN against the proposals of the Ukrainian side, even those that do not touch the conflict with Russia".

Therefore, he proposed to punish Minsk, depriving it of the status of an international negotiating platform, and to entrust the organization of meetings of negotiators on Minsk agreements to another state. According to political analyst Alexei Dzermant, this will not only become a serious diplomatic loss for Belarus, but will also aggravate the situation in the Donbass, writes "Vzglyad". Probably, it is precisely such a development of events that they crave in Ukraine.
