Russia announced the crossing of all reasonable borders by Kiev: Politics: Russia: Lenta.ru
Boris Gryzlov, the plenipotentiary of Russia in the contact group for resolving the situation in eastern Ukraine, that Kiev “crossed all reasonable boundaries”, declaring the use of military drones in Donbass and continuing shelling of its territories. Writes about it RIA News…
“The Ukrainian authorities have crossed all reasonable boundaries by their actions, continuing to fire at civilians and infrastructure of Donbass and at the same time flaunting in the press the use of combat UAVs prohibited by the Minsk agreements and the armistice agreement,” Gryzlov said, adding that Kiev continues to illegally detain a representative of Luhansk in the JCCC Andrey Kosyak.
The plenipotentiary of Russia added that during the meeting, Donbass found out from the OSCE representatives whether it violated the use of attack UAVs, as well as the permission announced publicly by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny to the commanders on the ground to open fire at their discretion. In addition, the head of the OSCE MM Chevik confirmed that the use of drones is a violation.
He noted, Gryzlov, when asked by representatives of Donbass, with which the leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine also makes frankly false statements about the violation of agreements, there was no answer to the question. “Ukrainian representatives ignored the demand of Donetsk and Lugansk to immediately return to fulfilling their obligations under the signed agreements to strengthen the ceasefire,” he said, concluding that Ukraine should be returned to the implementation of the ceasefire obligations.
Earlier Gryzlov accused Ukraine of fooling around. He indicated that the representatives of Ukraine did not show readiness to discuss any of the issues of the agreed task of the day and ignored the practical proposals of Donbass.
