The Russian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group on Donbas settlement has claimed it would be "inexpedient" to hold an extraordinary meeting as proposed by Ukraine.

That’s according to Ukraine’s delegate to the TCG, journalist Serhiy Harmash, Ukrinform reports.

"It is immediately obvious who seeks what. We have applied for an extraordinary meeting of the TCG in connection with ceasefire violations. The Russian side responded: ‘inexpedient,’” Harmash wrote on Facebook.
