Spokesman Vladimir Putin, commenting on the results of the talks in Minsk in the format "Channel four" said the President of Russia in negotiations on a ceasefire in the South-East of Ukraine adhered to the position other than the position of the other of the negotiating parties. His position was an immediate and unconditional ceasefire by all parties to the conflict. And only well-reasoned position of the militia of DND and LNR forced Putin to compromise on this issue. Militias believed that it is impossible to consistently and simultaneously to stop fighting all along the front line. Recall that following the negotiations, a cease-fire should happen in the night of 15 November at 00:00 hours.
