Leader of the Servant of the People Party, chairman of the Preparatory Deputy Group Dmytro Razumkov says a separate parliamentary committee should not be created solely for dealing with Donbas settlement issues.
Answering a doorstep question ahead of the meeting regarding proposals to create an additional parliamentary committee on Donbas settlement, Razumkov said: "These questions were also voiced in our proposals. But this is not a separate committee – this is a committee that is responsible for some other issues related to national minorities and human rights," according to an UNIAN correspondent.
