“Andriy Yermak thanked the diplomats and their countries for supporting Ukraine and expressed hope for further fruitful cooperation. The Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine informed of the situation in Donbas and further steps within the framework of the Minsk process,” the press service of the Head of State reports.

According to the Head of the President's Office, the Normandy format summit in Paris was quite successful as it resulted in mutual return of the detained persons at the end of December, and new lists have already been submitted in Minsk. However, it is important to fulfill all the agreements to move further towards peace.

“The position of the President remains unchanged: we want to do everything necessary to end the war and hold local elections throughout Ukraine at the end of October. We work 24/7 as it concerns the lives of our citizens,” Andriy Yermak stressed.

He assured that the pace of work on the lists and the return of Ukrainians would not be slowed down.

The Head of the President's Office also said that one of three areas for the new disengagement had been practically agreed during the recent meeting in Minsk. At the same time, he said, the Ukrainian party strives to speed up the process as much as possible.

Yermak also assured that the main purpose of his activity as Head of the President's Office would be to ensure the effective work of the President for the success of Ukraine.

“We want to be an example of openness and democracy. This should be the office of extremely efficient people whose main goal is the success of the President and Ukraine. Therefore, I will do everything to make the exchange of thoughts and information even more fruitful,” the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine told the G7 ambassadors.
