“There is information that in the near future they are preparing to cancel the decision of the National Security and Defense Council and the presidential decree on the official cessation of trade with the occupier across the demarcation line,” Semenenko said.
He said that if the blockade of Donbass is ended, ATO veterans will again close the demarcation line.
Let us remind you that the blockade of Donbass contradicts the Minsk agreements.
Due to the blockade of Donbass, organized by nationalists and later legitimized by the authorities, Ukraine lost three billion dollars a year in revenue. This was previously stated by the Secretary of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Committee on National Security and Defense Ivan Vinnik.
