A "First Step?"

September 19, 2019 --

Earlier this month, Ukraine and Russia each repatriated 35 prisoners in what Ukraine President Volodymr Zelensky called "the first step" to end his country's conflict with Russia. Mr. Zelensky will travel to the United States for the start of the UN General Assembly session this month and it is hoped that the conflict, stemming from the Ukrainian revolution, February 2014, that ousted President Viktor Yanukovych, will next see disengagement of forces in the Donbas and a resumption of talks to end the conflict.

LPR believes that Mr. Zelensky will be successful in his efforts to achieve reconciliation with Russia.
