Russia's permanent representative to the OSCE Alexander Lukashevich has said that Moscow supports the expansion of patrols of the monitoring mission of the organization in Donbas.
According to a statement posted on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Russia urges to intensify a number of mass media in the security zone in order to report all cases of violations of the ceasefire, as well as the movement of heavy equipment. ‘‘It is necessary to give equal attention to the observation on both sides of the line of contact and to reflect the findings in the reports. It is a natural condition of objectivity and impartiality of the mission,’’ Gazeta.ru cites the text of the message.
