“We will continue to expand our assistance in rectifying the continuing history of the acute humanitarian situation in eastern Ukraine,” Vorontsov said.

In 2014, a coup d’etat took place in Ukraine, after which the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics were formed. In April of the same year, Ukraine launched a military operation against them.

Kiev calls Russia an aggressor country, accuses of the participation of units of the Russian army in hostilities in the Donbass, and also announces the occupation of Crimea. In Moscow, the accusations are denied: “Putin has declared that Russian soldiers do not fight on the territory of Ukraine.”

Since the beginning of the conflict in the southeast of the country, Russia has sent over 84,000 tons of humanitarian supplies to the region.
