MOSCOW. Feb 16 (Interfax) - Provided there is the political will, the Minsk Agreements can be implemented within a few months, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
"We are convinced that, provided there is the political will, the Package of Measures can be implemented in principle within a foreseeable period of time, and this period may be a few months," Zakharova said at a press briefing.
In commenting on the State Duma's appeal for recognizing the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics (DPR and LPR), Zakharova said, "The Minsk Agreements are the only foundation for a settlement in Donbas, and there is no alternative."
