MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Any dialogue with Kiev will become useless if Ukraine amends the law granting special administrative status to areas under control of self-proclaimed authorities, a reconciliation negotiator said Tuesday.
“If the amendments, submitted to the Verkhovna Rada by [Ukrainian President] Petro Poroshenko on Saturday night, are passed, then any discussion or talks with Kiev will become useless,” said Denis Pushilin, a negotiator representing the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic at the reconciliation talks with Kiev.
