“The negative result of the negotiations of the contact group is that, unfortunately, it was not possible to agree on an exchange today,” RIA Novosti quoted her as saying.
In addition, the parties still have questions about the number of people to exchange. According to Nikonorova, it is necessary to verify the persons held "in a format in which both parties will trust each other and trust the people who will carry out this verification."
“So far, there are no final figures (for exchange. - RT ),” the Foreign Minister of the DPR stated.
Earlier it was reported that the next meeting of the contact group on the Donbass is scheduled for January 16, 2020.
