"We note with satisfaction that the silence regime is mainly observed from July 21, 2019," RIA Novosti quotes him.

Gryzlov also said that along the contact line, a decrease in the number of shelling was observed.

The declared truce and strengthening of the cease-fire regime, in his opinion, had a positive impact on the situation.

Earlier, members of the contact group agreed on a new indefinite truce, which began on July 21.
