“By setting the election date for April 20, Alexander Zakharchenko gave Kyiv an exhaustive maximum of “time to think” and to adopt special “Ukrainian legislation”, which was actually written in Donetsk and Minsk,” the publication emphasizes. – But there will be no further postponement of the date: if Kyiv continues to flout its obligations, the elections will take place according to laws agreed upon with the OSCE, but not adopted by the Verkhovna Rada. This is demanded by the residents of the republics, as well as the spirit of the Minsk agreements, which Francois Hollande and Angela Merkel so opportunely reminded Petro Poroshenko of.”
