In 2004, Ukraine deployed 14 helicopters and 260 peacekeepers to Liberia. Subsequently, the number of the latter was increased to 301.
The U.S. envoy says the number of peacekeepers potentially to be deployed was not on the agenda.
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko held a telephone conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, the press service of the Ukrainian president wrote.
Moscow believes that Kyiv’s plea to the UN to deploy a peacekeeping mission along the Russian-Ukrainian border in Donbas violates the succession of the Minsk agreements' stages, Russian Foreign Ministry spox Maria Zakharova said on Thursday, according to TASS news agency.
