MOSCOW, October 14. /TASS/. The demands of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics on registering humanitarian agencies do not violate international law, Russia’s Foreign Ministry official spokesperson said on Wednesday.
"The humanitarian crisis in Ukraine’s south-east is caused by Kiev’s military operation and economic blockade, and not by the measures of the DPR and LPR on regulating actions of humanitarian agencies and NGOs," Maria Zakharova said.
"We call on humanitarian organizations to continue the search for compromise solutions to continue the work," she said.
