the Organization for security and cooperation in Europe (OSCE) has the mandate to send peacekeepers to the South-East of Ukraine, said the Minister for reintegration of the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov. In line with this, Kiev is studying this “unprecedented opportunity” and is considering the introduction of peacekeepers, the OSCE on the territory of Donbass.
“it never happened, — said Reznikov. But technically and legally possible.” He suggests that the region could agree on such variant – putting peacekeepers, the OSCE, reports RIA Novosti.
Earlier, Kiev proposed to introduce in the Donbass UN peacekeepers. Moreover, the mission had to turn around widely, to the Russian border.
the Introduction of peacekeeping forces supported the President of Russia Vladimir Putin. However, he noted that the mission must be located only on the contact line. Its function should be only to providing security to the OSCE, Putin said.
