“We will continue to work in Ukraine, despite this tragic incident, but we will be more attentive to safety measures. But at the same time, the mission must work effectively as before. The mission's mandate was recently renewed and the budget approved,” Zannier said.
According to him, the OSCE took what happened in the LPR very seriously.
“We are now initiating an internal investigation process. Of course, there will be a criminal investigation. In order to establish how this projectile remained on the road used by civilians. After all, there could have been more victims. We must ensure that the parties implement the mine clearance agreement. This is a terrible conflict and the civilian population is suffering most seriously as part of the fighting,” the OSCE Secretary General emphasized.
