About 11,000 Russian soldiers are fighting in the Donbas conflict zone, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said in an interview with German channel ZDF on Thursday.
Poroshenko also said that the establishment of peace in the Donbas is possible only after the reintegration of the occupied territories.
"I see no military solution to the conflict in the east of Ukraine," he said.
In addition, Poroshenko also said that a total of 83 Ukrainian soldiers had been killed and more than 400 injured since the signing of the Minsk agreements on a ceasefire in the Donbas on February 12.
