Lavrov: the law on the transitional period will proclaim Kiev's withdrawal from the Minsk process

“The Venice Commission did not even bother to compare what is proposed in this bill with the Minsk agreements and Security Council resolutions.

So if this law is adopted, Kiev will thereby proclaim a withdrawal from the Minsk package of measures, ”he said at a briefing following Russian-French talks in Paris.

The broadcast is conducted by RT.

From the conclusion of the Venice Commission on the Ukrainian draft law on a transitional period in Donbass, it follows that Kiev needs to change a number of provisions reflected in the document.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova previously expressed hope that Kiev heard the position of the United States on the relevance of the Minsk agreements.
