OSCE representative Frisch plans to visit Donbas in October

Toni Frisch, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) coordinator in the Trilateral Contact Group's humanitarian subgroup will visit Donbas in October, and the Ukrainian side will insist on his meeting with the Ukrainian journalist and blogger Stanyslav Aseyev (Vasin), who is detained in the ORDO, First Deputy Speaker of Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada and representative of the Trilateral Contact Group Iryna Gerashchenko has said.

"He is planning another trip to Donbas in October. Surely, we will insist that we meet with a journalist who has no connection either with his relatives or with the world. He even doesn't have the right to call," she said in a commentary to Interfax-Ukraine during the 14th annual meeting of the Yalta European Strategy on the topic "Is the world new today? And what does this mean for Ukraine?" in Kyiv on Friday.

Gerashchenko reminded that Frisch visited Donbas in August and the Makiyivka colony (Ukraine's uncontrolled districts of the Donetsk region), where the Ukrainian military are being held.
