According to Ukrainian diplomatic sources, the paper was transferred to the Russian side (the representatives of the MFA of Russia) in the framework of one of the last meetings of the contact group on settling the situation in Eastern Ukraine. First of Kiev many times made a critical remark in connection with the supply in the Donbass Russian humanitarian assistance through columns of EMERCOM of Russia. According to the Deputy from "Blok Petro Poroshenko" Alexander Chernenko, Kiev is convinced: Russian convoys returning as if " often illegally transporting Ukrainian state property is stolen in parts of the Ukrainian enterprises."
