MINSK, September 20 (RIA Novosti) – Kiev authorities and independence supporters in eastern Ukraine have agreed to set up a 30-kilometers security zone and to move heavy weapons 15 kilometers (9 miles) away from the front line on both sides.
“Within 24 hours weapons with a calibre of more than 100 millimeters should be moved at least 15 kilometers away from the contact line on both sides, including from the residential areas, which would create an opportunity to establish a 30-kilometers security zone,” according to one of the provisions of the memorandum, signed earlier in the day during the meeting of the Contact Group on Ukraine, held in the Belarussian capital Minsk.
