LUHANSK, January 7. /TASS/. Chairman of the People’s Council of the self-proclaimed Luhansk People’s Republic Alexey Karyakin said Ukraine is ready to give up territories, which are currently under control of the republic.

“Ukraine has said two checkpoints operate on the line of contact with the LPR (Luhansk People’s Republic). Border services work there. This proves that at the moment it (Ukraine) is ready to part from the territories controlled by the LPR,” Karyakin said.

Last week secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, Oleksandr Turchinov, took a decision to determine seven corridors for entering and leaving the military operation zone.

On January 6, Ukraine’s State Inspection for Road Safety stopped bus service with territories in Donbas beyond Kiev’s control “in order to avoid the danger to life and health of passengers”.
