Ukraine will not participate in the trilateral contact group in Minsk.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Alexei Arestovich, adviser to the Ukrainian delegation at the tripartite contact group.

"I do not know what they are leading, but two things are important for Ukraine. First, we believe that the epidemiological situation does not allow us to go to Minsk, and we prefer to stay in videoconference mode. The second is the situation in Belarus. We do not consider President Lukashenko elected," he said.
