Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the United Nations Volodymyr Yelchenko says Kyiv invites an assessment mission of the UN Secretariat to Donbas to examine the situation in the east of Ukraine.One of the possible ways the UN could engage in the de-escalation of the conflict in Donbas would be the deployment of a peacekeeping operation there, Yelchenko said while presenting his credentials on January 4.
Opening a UN mission in support of the implementation of the Minsk peace agreements on Donbas could be another possible area for cooperation, Yelchenko said.
