The confrontation between Ukraine and Russia is “a very, very long time,” says Aleksey Arestovich, speaker of the Ukrainian delegation to the TCG for resolving the situation in Donbass.
Ukraine’s consent to the conditions of Russia in Donbass is impossible. The speaker of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) on resolving the situation in Donbass Alexey Arestovich said this on March 28 on the air of the TV channel “Ukraine 24”.
“Imagine the impossible: we completely agreed to Russian conditions. This will only be the beginning of the further movement of Russian Moloch to Ukraine. We understand this perfectly well and will not agree to this. The war in Donbass can be stopped politically and diplomatically, at least its military component.” , – he said.
According to the speaker of the Ukrainian delegation to the TCG, war is “more than military action.”
“It will not end on the diplomatic front, information and economic. There will be provocations of the special services, a corresponding struggle, there will be work against us inside Ukraine, this is a long history … Confrontation with Russia is a very, very long time. Our task is to stop the military component when shoot and die. We are trying to do it, “- explained Arestovich.
In 2014, after the occupation of Crimea, Russia began an armed aggression in the east of Ukraine. The fighting is between the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the one hand and the Russian army and Russian-backed militants who control parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions on the other. Officially, the Russian Federation does not recognize its invasion of Ukraine, despite the facts and evidence presented by Ukraine.
Negotiations on the settlement of the conflict in Donbass are being held in the trilateral contact group in Minsk (Ukraine, Russia, OSCE), as well as in the Normandy format – with the participation of representatives of Ukraine, France, Germany and Russia.
