The OSCE special monitoring mission should be freely allowed to monitor the situation in all conflict areas of the Donbas, including the village of Shyrokyne, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told journalists on Wednesday before a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in the Turkish city of Antalya, according to an UNIAN correspondent.

Kerry also spoke about his visit on Tuesday to Sochi in Russia, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

"Now is a "critical moment for action by Russia and separatists to live up to the Minsk agreement signed in the Belarus capital earlier this year," he said.

"It is also critical for observers from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to be allowed into the conflict areas to monitor the truce, especially Shyrokyne," Kerry said.
