United States Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power says that the carrying out of local elections in the occupied territories of Ukraine is possible only after proper security conditions are provided there.
The U.S. Ambassador said this on Thursday at a meeting of the UN Security Council on the conflict in Ukraine, own Ukrinform correspondent reports.
According to her, one of conditions for the political settlement of the conflict in eastern Ukraine is the resuming of normal situation along the demarcation line, when the Special Monitoring Mission can normally fulfill its tasks.
Samantha Power also stressed that the present climate in eastern Ukraine “in no way promotes these standards”.
