OSCE Chair welcomes Normandy Four Summit as important contribution towards the resolution of the conflict in eastern Ukraine

The Chairperson stressed that the agreed steps, when implemented, will be an important contribution to the resolution of the conflict in eastern Ukraine and to bringing peace to people who have been suffering for years.

“I am very glad that the further steps provide for measures including a commitment to the ceasefire, de-mining, facilitating the exchange of detainees, creating new disengagement areas along the contact line, and opening new entry and exit points – concrete measures that were promoted by the Slovak OSCE Chair since the very beginning of this year,” Minister Lajčák said.

The OSCE Chairperson-in-Office also welcomed the agreement of the Normandy Four leaders to meet again within four months to further discuss political and security issues, including the organization of local elections.
