Minsk cannot remain platform for negotiations to resolve situation in Donbas - Kravchuk

Minsk can no longer be a platform for negotiations to resolve the situation in Donbas due to the actions of the regime of Alexander Lukashenko in Belarus. Ukraine will look for an alternative to it. This statement was made by head of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group Leonid Kravchuk on the air of one of the TV channels.

"Considering the situation, the dictatorial line and the dictatorial behavior demonstrated by the self-proclaimed President Lukashenko, we cannot consider the issue of discussing the problems that are called the Minsk platform", - he said.

Kravchuk noted that Ukraine is now looking for another platform for negotiations on the Donbas. The Ukrainian side is planning consultations with the OSCE in this regard.

The head of the Ukrainian delegation noted that it is now impossible even to physically get to the capital of Belarus, since Ukraine has stopped flight connection with the country.

In addition, Kravchuk is convinced that Belarus is now not just a neighboring state, but also a satellite of Russia.
