Ukraine’s Defence Minister stressed it at a meeting at the NATO HQ.

“We ceased fire and withdrew heavy weapons,” Defence Minister stressed. “We respond only when there is a real menace of new territories capturing, when the enemy attacks.”

“The fulfillment of the Minsk Agreements is our primary task. I’m sure that Ukraine will not violate them. And we’re ready to keep on if all the parties observe the ceasefire,” Stepan Poltorak added.
