Now you can monitor only 13% of heavy weapons, the OSCE reported earlier.
The cease-fire in Eastern Ukraine violated every day and the security situation remains difficult.
This was stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at a press conference in Brussels.
“The security situation in Eastern Ukraine remains dire. The cease-fire is violated daily, sometimes hundreds of times a day because heavy weapons were not withdrawn”, – said Stoltenberg.
The NATO Secretary General also said that currently you can track only 13% of heavy weapons, the OSCE reported earlier.
“NATO continues to support Ukraine and we provide strong practical and political support”, – said Stoltenberg.
We will remind that earlier held talks in Minsk the foreign Ministers of the Normandy format on resolving the situation in Donbas, however, they yielded no concrete results. This was stated by foreign Minister of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier. The meeting participants came to a political agreement that would provide, in particular, the local elections in the occupied territories. But, he added, there is still hope of progress in the implementation of the Minsk agreements.
