The two leaders also exchanged views on the current situation in Donbas and the implementation of the Minsk peace agreements.
As UNIAN reported earlier, Poroshenko proposed at the UN Security Council on September 20 that UN peacekeepers be deployed to Donbas and called on UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres to send a technical evaluation mission to Ukraine for hammering out options for secure and political presence of the UN in Donbas.
