The OSCE mission cannot carry out verification (checking the implementation of the Minsk agreements regarding the withdrawal of heavy weapons - Ed.) because the parties to the conflict do not provide updated information about their positions and weapons that are not subject to withdrawal, and do not provide safe and unhindered access to them.

“For example, in the village of Pikuzy, which is controlled by the so-called. DPR, after spotting a tank under a camouflage net, our observers were forced to leave the area because someone fired warning shots next to them. Something similar happened yesterday in Donetsk - our observers were clarifying information about the incident on the street. Chekhov, armed members of the so-called. The DPR did not allow them onto this street. No matter how ironic it may sound, at the same time there was a protest action in front of our office in the center of Donetsk, organized by the so-called. DPR, where protesters complained that we refuse to monitor such security incidents,” said Alexander Hug.
