Russia fulfills none of Minsk deal clauses – Ukrainian Foreign Ministry

The Russian Federation has fulfilled none of the clauses of the Minsk peace agreement, official representative of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mariana Betsa has said.

“As of today, the Russian Federation has implemented none of the clauses of the Minsk agreement,” she said at a press briefing in Kyiv on Thursday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

According to her, Russia-controlled illegal armed units in Donbas continue regular shelling of Ukraine’s Armed Forces positions.

Betsa also informed that there were over 1,200 attacks along the demarcation line in Donbas in January, while this month there were already over 500 attacks.

“We are calling on the international community to strengthen the influence on the Russian Federation to ensure unconditional full fulfilment of the Minsk agreement,” Betsa stressed.
