Zelensky Called the Condition for the Adoption of the Special Status Law for Donbas

Ukraine can adopt a law on the special status of Donbas only if it will lead to the agreement on the end of the conflict, stated by President Volodymyr Zelensky. According to him, when all the participants of the Normandy format will agree, and Russia expresses a desire to “end this terrible war”, we can talk about the implementation of the Steinmeier formula. The Ukrainian leader noted that a ceasefire is necessary in the area of ​​contact between the forces of Ukraine and the DPR and LPR, as well as the exchange of prisoners. The return of sailors detained in the Kerch Strait to Ukraine, he called the first step. The second step is separation of forces. If there are seven days of cease firing, if we are all ready to separate the forces, not only our side, then there will be further steps,” Zelensky added. rosbalt
