Russia will send Ukraine the second part of humanitarian aid

The firs humanitarian convoy was forced to spend two days near Ukrainian border. Then it continued moving forward without permission of Ukrainian government.

Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov explained that Russia is ready to send citizens of Donetsk and Lugansk regions the second part of necessary humanitarian aid. Ukrainian Minister of Foreign Affairs has already been informed about this fact.

“We have already sent an official note to Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to inform Ukrainian side about our plans to prepare additional humanitarian convoy. We have also attached a detailed list of all cargos and products that will be transported on the territory of Ukraine. We do hope that it will take less time in order to coordinate further actions and find an agreement in comparison with the first effort to send humanitarian aid,” - shared his opinion Sergey Lavrov.

According to the Minister of Foreign Affairs the second humanitarian convoy may be sent during this week.
