Intensification of Information War against Ukraine observed on the eve of the Minsk meeting (MoD of Ukraine)

DONBAS — The intensification of the information war against Ukraine is observed on the eve of the Minsk meeting.

Particularly, while covering the situation in the region, the Russian news agencies broadcast false information referring to an alleged joint stance of the Ukrainian and Russian parties of the JCCC. This information is false.

The Ukrainian party of the JCCC recommends the Russian news agencies to specify which party of the JCCC provides them with the information.


State Russian media published the information with reference to so called Donetsk News Agency concerning alleged prevention of repair of power lines near Horlivka on January 18th because of alleged attacks by the Ukrainian army. They presented this information as information of the JCCC.

It is not true. The Ukrainian party of the JCCC stresses the works were carried out and completed as scheduled. Moreover, the Russian party of the JCCC proposed this schedule.


Having regard to the above, we can make a conclusion that the participation of the Russian party in approval of works applications means the necessity of organization of disinformation campaigns, especially, on the eve of the Minsk meeting but not the renewal of the Donbas infrastructure.
