Kiev said on may unilateral demarcation of the border with Russia
Ukraine believes that it may unilateral demarcation of the Ukrainian-Russian border, said the Director of Department of information policy of the Ministry of foreign Affairs of Ukraine Yevhen perebyinis.
first it was announced that the Council of national security and defence (NSDC) of Ukraine adopted a decision unilaterally to carry out the demarcation of the border with Russia. NSDC Secretary Andrei Parubiy at a press conference on the first day of the week explained that the story is about the construction of the necessary facilities and unilateral demarcation of the border not only in areas where fighting is taking place, and on the whole territory of Russian-Ukrainian border. The head of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko insisted on holding these events in a maximum short time.
" Unfortunately, the Russian side deliberately blocking the process of demarcation, which started on 7 November 2012 opening of the first border sign in the area of junction of the state borders of Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. For this reason, the Ukrainian side has the full right to actions that are not in conflict with the subject of bilateral Ukrainian-Russian agreements on the issues of borders, namely the designation of the state border line unilaterally with its own territory due to Protocol inventory passing the state border line and album topographic maps of the state border Between Ukraine and Russia, " said Predrag at a press conference on Tuesday.
however, As said by the speaker of Council of Federation Valentina Matvienko, the message of Ukraine on border demarcation with Russia unilaterally looks like a provocation " for further escalation of the conflict with Russia ". It recalled that, in accordance with international standards for demarcation of the border shall be established a joint Commission with the participation of commissioners of both countries, which must carry out the demarcation " not for miles, and the meter by meter ". Demarcation is possible only on a bilateral basis, this border will never be recognized, said Matvienko.
head of the state Duma on international Affairs Alexei Pushkov believes that the Russian Federation does not recognize the unilateral demarcation of the border from Ukraine, and took it, because it will lead To permanent border conflicts. According to him, the border, held by one party, has no legal force.
Experts underline that the decision of Ukraine to carry out the demarcation of the border with Russia unilaterally does not correspond to the norms of international law and increases the probability of the cast To tensions and international legal conflicts.
