The foreign ministers of the “Norman format” countries are going to talk about the possibility of organizing a checkpoint in a pandemic.
This was reported by German Foreign Minister Heiko Maaas.
“The coronavirus pandemic is hitting hard on citizens of eastern Ukraine. The elderly population is particularly affected by the closure of the contact line. Therefore, we are working to achieve rapid progress in a crisis situation. In this regard, we will discuss the opening of the contact line and the issue of crossings. This would be a progress that would bring real relief to the people of eastern Ukraine”, – he said.
The opening of new checkpoints in the Donbass is a good thing. But in the conditions of the pandemic, there are hardly many people in the LPR or the DPR who would like to go to Ukraine.
