About this in interview Boris Gryzlov, the representative of the Russian Federation in the Contact Group for resolving the situation in Ukraine, told Izvestia, answering the question about the situation with the points provided for in the Minsk agreements, according to which it was planned to restore socio-economic ties between certain regions of Donbass and Ukraine.
“We have to admit that the situation has completely degraded compared to what it was on the date of signing the Minsk agreements—February 12, 2015,” Gryzlov said. – Let me remind you that the restoration of economic ties implied not only mutual supplies of goods, but also the resumption of social transfers, such as the payment of pensions and other payments, and the restoration of the country’s banking system in certain areas of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions. And instead - an absurd blockade of Donbass by Kiev, with damage to Ukraine’s own budget, with the consequences of a drop in GDP to 1%. A real, as they say, “crossbow”, shooting yourself in the foot!”
