within its internationally recognised borders. A democratic, politically and economically stable Ukraine, committed to its ambitious reform agenda remains a priority for
our countries. In this context, we expressed strong desire for a sustainable solution to the conflict in Eastern Ukraine that can only be reached with the full
implementation of the Minsk Agreements by all sides. We commend all international efforts especially within the Normandy Format and the Trilateral Contact Group as
well as all responses of the OSCE and its current Austrian OSCE Chairmanship focused on steps and initiatives to find a peaceful and lasting solution to the crisis. We
reiterate our full support to the continued work of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM). We highlight the importance of ensuring safe and unhindered access
for monitors throughout Ukraine in order to help SMM fulfil its agreed mandate. With deep regret we note the unacceptable intimidation and restrictions of the SMM
that continue to take place.
