Fresh Minsk talks not needed - Ukraine official
The Ukrainian authorities maintain that the current Minsk agreement should be fulfilled first.
The aide to the Ukrainian Security Service Marian Lubkiuski does not think that another meeting of the trilateral group may be held in Minsk until the previous agreements are fulfilled. He announced it on TV on the evening of Novemebr 13, censor.net.ua reports.
"There will be no Minsk-2. We have Minsk-1 agreements and terrorists are ignoring them,” Lubkiuski said.
Militants should resume the exchange of captives, stick to the ceasefire agreement and give control over the border to the ATO, Ukrainian ambassador at large Dmitri Kuleba added.
The protocol signed in Minsk on September 5 provided for a ceasefire agreement, monitoring of the Russian-Ukrainian border by the OSCE, decentralization of power in Ukraine and early local elections in Lugansk and Donetsk Oblasts according to the Ukrainian legislation, RBK reports.
