MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On March 22, Bugallo said at a press conference in Kiev that the Minsk 2 Agreements were impossible to implement since they were concluded when people were engaged in fierce fighting in Donbas, but noted that there is currently no other tool except for the accords to settle the crisis in Ukraine’s eastern region.
"We believe that by making categorical and biased statements, the Spanish representative in Kiev not only went far beyond his official status, but also contradicted with the official position of his own country's leadership," the ministry said.
"Words on the alleged impossibility to implement the Minsk package of measures are absolutely unacceptable," the ministry said in commentary on its website.
In February 2015, Kiev forces and Donbass independence supporters signed a peace agreement in the Belarusian capital of Minsk. The deal stipulates a full ceasefire, weapons withdrawal from the line of contact in Donbass, as well as constitutional reforms that would give a special status to the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics. Despite the agreement brokered by the Normandy Four states, the ceasefire regime is regularly violated, with both sides accusing each other of multiple breaches, undermining the terms of the accord.
