The Belarusian capital will host the next round of talks on Ukraine on 13 July, BelTA quotes OSCE special representative in the trilateral contact group on Ukraine, Ambassador Martin Sajdik. He said that, by way of exception, only three working groups met in Minsk on 29 June. Those were the groups on economic affairs, security and political affairs. Martin Sajdik added that the meetings of the working groups on political affairs and security took place on 28 and 29 June.

The working group on humanitarian affairs is expected to meet in Minsk on 4 July. “The meeting of this group has been postponed due to the fact that its coordinator Ambassador Toni Frisch is currently attending a meeting in New York,” Martin Sajdik explained.
