LUHANSK. Feb 18 (Interfax) - The self-proclaimed Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) expects Ukraine's inaction in implementing the Minsk Agreements to be evaluated during a United Nations Security Council meeting on the Minsk Agreements, LPR Foreign Minister Vladislav Deinego said.
"We hope that participants in the meeting will give proper assessments of Ukraine's inaction and its actual refusal to implement the Minsk Agreements, and that the Western guarantors of the Minsk Agreements will end the practice of ignoring Ukraine's destructive actions and will use appropriate motivation to prompt Kyiv to meet its commitments in good faith," Deinego said in a statement made available to Interfax on Friday.
The process of negotiating a road map for settling the Donbas crisis, which, according to Deinego, Kyiv has been blocking for a year and a half," gives a "vivid example" of the destructive position of Ukrainian representatives at the Minsk talks, it said.
"Instead of providing at least some commentary on the draft Road Map of the Republics [self-proclaimed Luhansk and Donetsk People's Republics], which we submitted back in October 2020, the Ukrainian side is engaged exclusively in inventing all new excuses for its sabotage," Deinego said.
A similar situation is observed on other tracks of the Donbas settlement, he said.
On Thursday, the UN Security Council is considering the implementation of the Minsk Agreements on the settlement in Donbas.
