“In Kiev, they either say that they will comply with the Minsk agreements, or they say that it will destroy their country.

Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba said that the Minsk agreements cannot be implemented on Russian terms, which are based on direct dialogue between Ukraine and ORDLO. The head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry also stressed that although Minsk is the base platform for resolving the situation in Donbas, Ukraine will not comply with the agreements in the Russian interpretation, since they contradict Ukrainian national interests..
