The future development of the situation in eastern Ukraine depends on Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Alexei Danilov.

According to him, the biggest problem is the lack of compassion of the leader of the aggressor country:

"We do not plan any tension," he said. We value the life of each of our soldiers and want everything to end soon. The President of Ukraine does everything that depends on him. "Putin does not feel sorry for the people, and this is a big problem."
