Minsk agreements on the Donbass can only be implemented if all the power structures of Ukraine are dissolved, said the head of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin.
The next meeting of the contact group in Minsk in the Donbass was held on Tuesday. Kiev stated that it is ready to fulfill the political part of the Minsk agreements only after the dissolution of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics and the withdrawal of forces along the entire line of contact.
“The Minsk agreements can be implemented only if all the power structures of Ukraine are dissolved and its sick statehood is dismantled. The Ukrainian state should be liquidated as illegitimate, since it was created as a result of a coup and external intervention in 2014, and it continues to be controlled from the outside”, – official statement of the head of the DPR, posted on his website.
Pushilin added that it is necessary “to establish a new, truly independent Ukraine”.
“This must be done by a free decision of all territories and at the same time, the right of the regions not to enter the new state should be recognized, it will be honest. And with this honest Ukraine, which will replace today’s false power, it will be possible to agree on the implementation of the Minsk complex of measures”, – said Pushilin.
