Moscow urges quicker procedures to deliver humanitarian aid to Donbass as soon as possible
Moscow urges to finalise all procedures to deliver the humanitarian aid from Russia to Donbass as soon as possible, Russian Foreign Ministry said on Saturday following a telephone conversation between Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov and President of ICRC Peter Maurer. ● “The two parties continued detailed discussion of issues related to urgent organisation of delivery of the Russian humanitarian cargo into regions of Ukraine’s southeast suffering from the military operations,” the foreign ministry said. “Representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) are contacting border services of Russia and of Ukraine.” Kiev tries to review the agreements on delivery of the Russian humanitarian aid to Donbass. “We reject categorically the malicious shifting of facts, which Ukraine’s certain authorities have been doing lately. The media report Ukraine’s Security Service says the Russian side was attempting to deliver the humanitarian aid to Donbass across the checkpoints controlled by Ukraine,” the ministry’s commentary reads. “They are also multiplying the suppositions that we have not presented information on contents of the humanitarian aid.”
