Mogherini speaks out against Minsk agreements, encourages Europe to increase pressure against Russia, Interfax-Ukraine reports.
High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini encouraged increasing pressure against Russia for solving the conflict in the east of Ukraine.
“Now, we should ensure that the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine through Minsk agreements led to certain results, and we should think about the format change”, she said on Friday, opening the Lennart Meri’s conference “Darkest Just Before the Dawn? WarforTrustandHowtoWin It”.
According to her, we should “continue supporting the French and German in this format, help our Ukrainian friends and ensure that they do their part”.
“We should also increase pressure against Russia”, Head of European Diplomacy emphasized.
F. Mogherini considers that Russia relied on Ukraine’s destruction, driven by war. “This did not happen and we should help positive processes in Ukraine”, Head of EU’s Foreign Policy said.
