Ukraine hopes OSCE will send armed police mission to Donbas
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has stated Ukraine is conducting active talks with international partners regarding the deployment of an armed OSCE police mission in Donbas.
"One of the most likely and acceptable options to resolve this problem is an international security component in the form of an armed OSCE mission. For this we definitely need an OSCE decision, extension of the mandate, and we are now effectively conducting negotiations with our partners to ensure this security component," the president said at a press conference in Washington.
Poroshenko stressed that Ukraine insists on the full implementation of the Minsk agreements.
"This is Ukraine's firm position that for the implementation of the Minsk agreements in full it is necessary to ensure a security component. This component includes the fact that we must ensure ceasefire, an effective regime of monitoring weapons withdrawal and effective control over the uncontrolled section of the Ukrainian-Russian border," Poroshenko stressed.
