German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President François Hollande, Ukraine’s President Petro Poroshenko and Russian President Vladimir Putin met at the Federal Chancellery in Berlin on the 19 October 2016. The Normandy format meeting focused on the implementation of the Minsk agreements for eastern Ukraine. The implementation of the Minsk agreements was stalling 'at many points' said the Chancellor. More progress must be made on a ceasefire and on humanitarian and political matters, she said. 'No miracles should be expected from this meeting', declared Angela Merkel. But no stone should be left unturned in efforts to get the stalled implementation of the Minsk agreements moving again. In the sidelines of the meeting German and French leaders also spoke with the Russian President concerning the situation in Syria. |
