The Donetsk and Lugansk republics (DPR and LPR) do not think it is necessary to formalize the extension of the Package of measures of the Minsk Agreements for 2016, DPR envoy to Contact Group Denis Pushilin told TASS on Thursday.
Pushilin said that the Package of measures was not fully implemented as no agreement was reached on holding local election in separate parts of the Donetsk and Lugansk republics.
“There were not elections. Consequently, the situation looks like we did not have any other option than to postpone it to 2016. Consequently, there is complete understanding that there is no need in formalization, to additionally sign the document,” Pushilin added.
