EU believes in Minsk agreements implementation, no UN peacekeepers for Donbas

A European Union spokesperson for foreign affairs has declined to comment on an idea of sending a UN peacekeeping mission to Donbas, according to the Ukrainian news portal Yevropeiska Pravda.

Asked by a German journalist at a daily briefing in Brussels on Friday whether UN peacekeepers could be sent to the east of Ukraine, she said: ”I would rather refer you also to the UN for that,” Yevropeiska Pravda wrote.

She also described the question as ”a bit speculative.”

”I would like to recall our position, which is the EU`s position, that we believe in the full implementation of the Minsk agreements. And all our efforts are going towards this,” she said.

German Minister for Foreign Affairs Sigmar Gabriel said during his recent visit to Kyiv that he considers an idea of reinforcing an OSCE monitoring mission in Donbas to be reasonable and he supports it should be done with technical means.
