Representative of Ukraine in the working subgroup on political issues of the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) for settlement in Donbas, Oleksiy Reznikov, has said that there was a normal negotiation process during the meeting of the TCG on Dec. 18, and there was no reason to say that something went wrong.
“I would like to note that today there were a lot of leaks of information that something went wrong, someone disrupted something … This is a normal negotiation process, but very complicated, which has a lot of peculiarities and technical details. But there are no reasons today to say that something was disrupted or something went wrong,” he said at a press briefing at the Office of the President of Ukraine in Kyiv on Dec. 19 following a meeting of the Trilateral Contact Group in Minsk.
Prior to this, in Minsk, the parties did not agree on the date of the exchange of kept persons, did not determine the date of a new ceasefire, declaring their commitment to establish a “ceasefire regime,” which was announced in July.
