Finland’s president says Minsk agreement should be looked at again

HELSINKI (Reuters) – The Minsk agreement should be revisited to find a solution to the ongoing crisis between Ukraine and Russia, Finland’s President Sauli Niinisto said on Friday.

Niinisto said Russia’s President Vladimir Putin had brought up the Minsk agreement in his recent discussion with Niinisto. The Minsk set of agreements was signed in 2014 and 2015 by the leaders of Ukraine, Russia, France and Germany as a response to Russia’s annexation of Crimea.
