Escalation of situation in eastern Ukraine and provocations in Crimea show Russian unwillingness for peaceful conflict solution

Estonian Prime Minister Taavi Roivas has said that the escalation of hostilities in the east of Ukraine and provocations in Crimea indicate at Russia’s unwillingness to peacefully resolve the conflict.

"The escalation of hostilities in eastern Ukraine and provocations in Crimea indicate that, unfortunately, Russia is not ready to resolve the conflict in a peaceful way," the press service of the Estonian government said, quoting the prime minister at a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Estonian prime minister stressed that as long as Russia does not comply with the agreements reached in Minsk (Belarus), sanctions lifting is out of question.
