The next meeting of the Trilateral Contact Group for Donbas will be held in Minsk on August 3.

Ukrainian representative in the humanitarian subgroup of the Trilateral Contact Group, Verkhovna Rada First Vice-Speaker Iryna Gerashchenko said this at a news conference in Kramatorsk.

“The next meeting in Minsk will take place on August 3,” the MP said, when asked by an Ukrinform correspondent about the date of the next meeting and issues that are planned to be raised by the Ukrainian side.

According to Herashchenko, during the talks the key topic will again be the issue of control at the Ukrainian-Russian border.

Besides, the Ukrainian side in the humanitarian subgroup again will raise the issue of release of captives.

“The humanitarian subgroup will raise the issue of release [of captives]. You know it must not be theoretical. We must start implement it in practice. It is very important to receive the information about the number of captives, their location,” she said.
