Ukraine insists on the deployment of a UN peacekeeping mission throughout the whole territory of occupied Donbas, not only along the contact line.

"Today, we insist on the need for a peacekeeping mission throughout the whole territory, not just along the contact line. It should be deployed with a full-fledged mandate, including disarmament of illegal units and control over the uncontrolled section of the Ukrainian-Russian border," President Petro Poroshenko wrote on Facebook.

According to him, the presence of a peacekeeping contingent will create conditions for holding local elections in the territory of certain regions of Donetsk and Luhansk regions under Ukrainian legislation, with Ukrainian election commissions, with the participation of Ukrainian parties.
