Statement by High Representative/Vice-President Federica Mogherini on the latest developments in Ukraine

STATEMENT from the Official Website 09/11/14:

"The most recent reports by the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission in Ukraine about convoys in separatist held areas with substantial amounts of heavy weapons, tanks and troops without insignia moving westwards represent a very worrying development.

 This comes in addition to reported heavy outgoing shelling overnight from the Donetsk area and reports over the last week of increased movements of troops and equipment.

It is imperative to avoid any re-escalation of hostilities. All parties must now show utmost restraint, strictly abide by their commitments under the Minsk Protocol and Memorandum, and reengage in view of finding a peaceful sustainable solution based on respect for Ukraine's independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.

I call on the Russian Federation to fully assume its responsibilities in this regard, including by preventing any further movement of military, weapons or fighters from its territory into Ukraine, and withdrawing any troops, weapons and equipment under its control from Ukraine, as well as by exercising its influence to ensure that the separatists implement in good faith the obligations assumed in Minsk."

  1. Mogherini calls on parties to Ukrainian conflict to avoid escalation of hostilities ...

    The European Union’s new High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy, Federica Mogherini, on Sunday called on all parties to the conflict in eastern Ukraine to show restraint and spare no effort to avoid further escalation of hostilities.

    She said it was utterly important to prevent another spiral of hostilities, for which ends all the parties to the conflict must demonstrate restraint, strictly observe their liabilities under the Minsk protocol and memorandum and to resume efforts to reach sustainable peace settlement on the basis of respect to Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.................http://en.itar-tass.com/world/758797
