Hahn: The EU does not want to interfere in the Normandy format, but wants to focus on humanitarian issues in the Donbas
According to Johannes Hahn, the Commissioner for European Neighborhood Policy & Enlargement Negotiations, the EU does not want to interfere in the Normandy format, but it wants a larger role in resolving the humanitarian crisis in the Donbas, Evropeyskaya Pravda reported.
Hahn noted that interference in the Normandy format may cause “unnecessary turbulence” in resolving the conflict in eastern Ukraine, but the EU would like to focus its efforts on humanitarian issues.
"We believe that the EU should play a more important role in regard to the reconstruction of the region affected by the conflict, the restoration of infrastructure,” Hahn stated.
