"Our [OSCE mission in Ukraine] mandate assumes engagement in dialogue with everyone. We interact with representatives of religious and social organizations, the business community and local leaders. All these discussions and dialogues are conducted fairly and professionally," Donetsk news agency quoted Hug as saying.
According to Hug, the latest meeting of the special mission monitors and the DPR authorities coincided with a meeting of the organization's Joint Centre for Control and Co-ordination (JCCC) representatives with Donetsk leadership.
The main topics of discussion were the situation in Donetsk, including in the town of Volnovakha, and implementation of the Minsk agreements.
On Tuesday, 12 people were killed and 18 others were injured when a bus was attacked close to a Ukrainian military checkpoint near the town of Volnovakha in the eastern Donetsk region.
On Sunday, the OSCE monitoring mission in Ukraine confirmed that Kiev forces and DPR have agreed to launch a joint inquiry into the recent attack on a bus.
The OSCE, alongside with Russia, was mediating the negotiations between Kiev authorities and representatives of the breakaway republics of Donetsk and Luhansk held in Belarusian capital Minsk on September 5 and 19, 2014.
The talks resulted in a ceasefire agreement between the warring sides. Both parties, however, subsequently accused each other of violating the truce.
