Moscow - The self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) militants are ready to proclaim a truce for the period of the Boeing 777 crash investigation and to let experts, among them Ukrainian detectives, visit the crash scene, DPR First Vice-Premier Andriy Purhin told Interfax.
“We are negotiating a humanitarian truce of two to four days with the
purpose of probing the causes of the Boeing crash in the Donetsk
airspace,” Purhin told Interfax.
“The Contact Group will carry on consultations to this effect at noon, local time,” Purhin said.
The Contact Group composition has been unchanged; it still comprises the DPR, Kyiv, Russia and the OSCE, he noted.
The militia “is ready to provide an unhampered access and to guarantee the security of experts on the crash scene,” Purhin said.
“Reportedly, the international team will include representatives of
the Donetsk People’s Republic, the OSCE, the ICAO and another two
organizations investigating plane crashes,” he said.
“We are ready to give access even to Ukrainian detectives,” the DPR first vice-premier stressed.
