Critical voices are increasingly heard among the EU countries regarding the unwillingness of the Ukrainian government to implement provisions of the Minsk Agreement, "Deutsche Wirtschafts Nachrichten" reported.

It particularly concerns Ukraine's attempts to delay its implementation and reluctance to realize the decentralization agreed in Minsk.

German Foreign Ministry Walter Steinmeier called on the EU to involve Russia in the negotiation of the EU-Ukraine free trade agreement in order to show "the necessary flexibility" and to improve the political climate.

However, this move is rejected by Kiev as the Ukrainian government claims that Russia has no right to participate in the discussion of an agreement between the sovereign Ukraine and the EU, the German media source reported.

In February, foreign ministers of Russia, France, Germany and Ukraine, negotiated a ceasefire deal for the warring sides in Minsk, Belarus. The agreement stipulates full restoration of social and economic system in the country and implies decentralization of power in Donetsk and Luhansk regions.


Comment: The EU shouldn't have gone along with Washington's coup in the first place. The mess is on their doorstep now. The Ukraine is now run by a clique of neo-Nazi fanatics, the neo-Nazi battalions are out of control, and there's no telling what those lunatics will do with a wink and nod from Washington. Also see:
