The self-proclaimed Donetsk Republic hopes on the initialling of the agreement for the withdrawal of weapons with a calibre of not more than 100 millimetres at the meeting of the Contact group on Wednesday, said this morning authorized DND in the Contact group Denis Putilin.

dialogues of the Contact group on settling the situation in Ukraine and its sub-working groups will be held on Wednesday in Minsk. The agenda remains the same: one of the main issues, as at previous meetings, will be the approval of the document on the withdrawal of weapons with a calibre of not more than 100 millimeters in the Donbass.

"maybe that will be a restart process in a non-coercive way and maybe that will be a process of initialing of the document (agreement about the discharge of weapons). Chances are, but they are extremely small. All depends on the instructions that Ukraine receives from the outside " - quoted Pushilin, the Donetsk news Agency.
