Russia, at a meeting of the Trilateral Contact Group on Tuesday, November 24, in fact recognized itself as a party to the conflict in Donbass, the adviser to the Ukrainian TCG delegation Alexey Arestovich said on the air of the television channel Ukraine 24.
According to him, Russia, because of its support for the Donbass plan, which the militants proposed, in fact admitted its participation in the Donbass war.
«For me, this actually means that Russia has recognized itself as a party to the conflict. Not a mediator, as he is diligently portrayed over the six years, but a party to the conflict, because they supported statements of this level … (Almost a year has passed since the Normandy Accords were signed and the question arises as to who should be responsible for their failure. Given that we have the support of Germany, France and the new US administration, Putin may be directly guilty, “Arestovich said.
Earlier, the Ukrainian delegation to the TCG said that the Russian side supported the action plan for Donbass, which was proposed by the representatives of ORDLO.
Recall that the head of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group Leonid Kravchuk announced a plan to achieve peace in Donbass.
According to the plan, Ukraine proposes to completely end the conflict and demilitarize certain areas of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions by early 2021 to create the necessary conditions for the local elections on March 31, 2021.
The Kremlin responded that Kiev’s proposal to disarm all illegal armed groups and return the border with the Russian Federation under the control of the Ukrainian government ahead of local elections «does not agree with the Minsk agreements. “
The Ukrainian delegation to the TCG on November 10 said that the plan «took as a basis “.
