| Subject: Ukraine and Russia agree to work on truce extension Mon Jun 30, 2014 6:07 pm | |
| Ukraine and Russia have agreed to work together to establish a bilateral ceasefire in eastern Ukraine, the office of the French president says.
They are also working towards the establishment of effective border controls, it adds.
It follows talks between the leaders of Ukraine, Russia, Germany and France to resolve the conflict in east Ukraine.
A ceasefire between the Ukrainian authorities and pro-Russian separatists is due to end on Monday evening.
But the temporary truce, which was extended for three days on Friday, has had little effect on the ground, with both sides accusing the other of violating it.
Five Ukrainian soldiers have been killed in clashes in the east and a Russian state TV cameraman was also shot dead while he was reporting in the city of Donetsk.
