I strongly beg you to exert an impact on that side, to make them stop killing our people. This was the first. The second point was that we keep demining and we need to shorten the time of the building of the bridge in Stanytsia Luhanska. I&#8217;ve raised a couple of other issues, connected with our captives. This was a long conversation. I say they kill our people.
