Negotiations of delegations from Russia and Ukraine in the Gomel region on the Belarusian-Ukrainian border have ended. On Monday, February 28, reports TASS with a link to the source.
The meeting lasted about five hours – it began at about 14:00 Moscow time in a secret location code-named “fisherman’s house” on the banks of the Pripyat River.
