Sergey Lavrov told a news conference on Friday.
“We still have the hope that goodwill will prevail. I would not like to suspect anyone. But there is evidence that such an aggressive behaviour against the territories in question (Ukraine’s east) is being induced from abroad,” Lavrov said.
“Another important task of the OSCE monitoring mission will be to address the problem of hostages,” he said. “We would like to see the parties agree to exchange all for all.”
Lavrov voiced the hope that the mission would not stay aloof from the 'crimes which were committed in the course of the armed conflict in Ukraine, starting from Maidan protests, and also in Odessa, Mariupol, Kramatorsk and other cities and from reports of mass graves.”.......................http://itar-tass.com/en/world/765343
