gulftoday.ae Ukraine rebels vow to respect ceasefire
KIEV: Both Ukraine and the pro-Russian rebels pledged on Saturday that they are going to respect a ceasefire due to come into force, after fierce fighting plunged the truce into doubt.
Under a peace plan signed between Kiev and the rebels in Minsk on Thursday after marathon talks between the leaders of Ukraine, Russia, Germany and France, a ceasefire will start in war-torn east Ukraine at midnight 2200 GMT Saturday (02:00am on Sunday UAE time). Ukraine’s President Petro Poroshenko confirmed he remained ready to abide by the deal in a phone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande.
