Dnipropetrovsk - Ukraine wants the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe's team of monitors in Donetsk and Luhansk regions to be enlarged, President Petro Poroshenko has said.
“We demand that the team of OSCE experts who will monitor and verify the ceasefire be enlarged,” he said at the Pivdenne design bureau in Dnipropetrovsk on Tuesday, Oct. 21.
Seventeen monitoring centers have been set up along the engagement line for international monitoring groups, comprised of Ukrainian and Russian military experts, and experts from the OSCE, whose job is to react to violations of the ceasefire agreement, he said.
Poroshenko also said that agreements had been reached to better equip the OSCE monitoring groups and to provide them with drones, armored vehicles and radars.
