Italian foreign minister to visit Kiev, Moscow to discuss Ukrainian crisis settlement ways
ROME, July 07. /ITAR-TASS/. Italian Foreign Minister Federica Mogherini on Monday is embarking on a four-day trip that includes visits to Kiev and Moscow. The Italian minister said that by paying the first visits, after Italy assumed the EU presidency, to Ukraine and Russia, Rome wants to highlight the priority of the search for ways of settling the Ukrainian conflict and find an equilibrium in relations with Moscow after the signing of the EU association agreement by Kiev.
Mogherini has repeatedly stressed the need for the bilateral ceasefire by the conflicting sides in the southeast of Ukraine, release all the seized observers and establishment of the system of control over the Russian-Ukrainian border the monitoring of which should be conducted by the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). The Italian minister has already discussed these issues with her Russian, Ukrainian, German and French colleagues, as well as with the president of Switzerland that is presiding in the OSCE.
