The Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics see no need for peacekeepers to be sent to Donbass, the LPR representative in the Contact Group Vladislav Deinego said.
“As regards peacekeepers, the situation is simple. We are capable of ensuring the security of our territories, we are capable of withdrawing of troops on our own accord. For this purpose, the OSCE, which will only watch us do that as a mediator, is enough for us,” the Lugansk Information Center quoted Deinego as saying.
“We don’t need any additional levers that will in any way contribute to the establishment of peace,” he said. “Until we establish that peace on our own, no peacekeepers will help. This is our position and the position of Donetsk.”
“I recently heard one more interesting position in that regard: Europe also assesses it in that manner. That if there is the need in peacekeepers, at first peace has to be established, and then, maybe, a buffer zone,” Deinego said.
In turn, the DPR representative in the Contact Group Denis Pushilin stressed that the decision on possible establishment of a buffer zone should be made “in consultation with representatives of the Republics.”
“Peacekeepers are working in the zone where both sides asked to invite mediators if they failed to cope with the situation on their own. I think the situation is currently under our control,” Deinego said.
