Russia needs to get serious about implementing Minsk agreements – Volker

Kurt Volker, the special representative of the U.S. State Department for Ukraine Negotiations, has called the extension of the economic sanctions against Russia by the European Union a strong signal.
"Strong signal from the EU that Russia needs to get serious about implementing Minsk agreements and choosing #peace4Ukraine," Volker wrote on Twitter.
As reported, the leaders of the European Union agreed to extend the EU economic sanctions against Russia given zero progress in implementation of the Minsk agreements.
