Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Secretary Oleksandr Turchynov believes that the settlement process in the Trilateral Contact Group in Minsk will continue in 2016.

"The Minsk process will not stop; it will continue next year. I very much want to believe that it will be more efficient and productive than it was this year," Turchynov said during his visit to the Aerotechnica-MLT enterprise in Makarove, Kyiv region, to observe production and modernization of air defense systems.
