USA Today quotes Brent Scowcroft Center Senior Fellow Ian Brzezinski on the Minsk agreement and violations of the ceasefire in Ukraine:
Ian Brzezinski, a former NATO policy adviser at the Department of Defense who is at the Atlantic Council think-tank, said Lavrov and Russian-backed forces in eastern Ukraine should stick to the Minsk agreement as it was signed. “This sounds like a new Russian creation to reduce Ukraine’s ability to control its territory,” Brzezinski said.
