Today, a new round of talks on the Donbass will take place in Minsk. The sides will traditionally discuss the main issues – the implementation of the Minsk Agreements, the preparation for exchange of prisoners, the restoration of infrastructure, and political settlement.
Earlier, the contact group agreed on the so-called "school" truce in the Donbass on 25 August. Since the beginning of the year, this is the fifth attempt to call on the parties to cease fire. Negotiators also continue their work on the creation of new security zones.
