EU citizens fighting in Ukraine is propaganda rather than reality,
declared the president of the European Council. Croatia’s FM confirmed
earlier that citizens of that EU member state had joined Kiev troops to
fight rebels in Ukraine’s east.
The presence of Europeans among the ranks of the warring parties is not a major problem, whereas Russia’s goodwill is essential for implementation of the Minsk agreement, President of the European Council Donald Tusk told a press conference after an EU summit, as cited by RIA Novosti. Tusk stressed that this is his personal appraisal.
Earlier this week, Croatia’s top diplomat acknowledged the presence of volunteers from his country in the conflict zone in Ukraine.
“As far as I know, there are Croatian soldiers in Ukraine who have joined the Ukrainian army,” Croatia’s Foreign Minister Vesna Pusic told the media in the capital, Zagreb, on Wednesday.
Croatia’s Foreign Ministry has addressed citizens participating in the Ukrainian conflct to come back home and not prevent the implementation of the ceasefire agreement reached in Minsk.
“We believe that all foreign volunteers, including those from Croatia, should return to their home countries in order for the today’s agreement to yield results as soon as possible,” the ministry said in an official statement.
