Russia proposes creating international ‘support group’ to resolve Ukrainian crisis.
Russias Foreign Ministry has offered the US and the EU to form an international support group for Ukraine to help the country elaborate a new constitution, conduct an all-people's referendum and then organize nationwide elections.
Ukraines support group must be compact and acceptable for all Ukrainian political forces, maintains the statement published on the Russian Foreign Ministrys official website.
Earlier the Russian Foreign Minister pointed out that the western countries who were offering to set up a contact group to deal with the Ukrainian crisis proceeded from the opinion that Russia is to blame for this crisis and that the purpose of the multilateral process should be to promote a direct dialogue between Ukraine and Russia.
Russia is not to blame for this crisis. We warned everybody, our European partners in the first place, that it was impossible to present Ukraine with a false choice which was the case when Ukraine was preparing to sign an association and free trade agreement with the European Union, the Russian Foreign Minister stressed, following the meeting with US State Secretary John Kerry last week.
