Russia's Foreign Ministry says the law regarding special status for the Donetsk and Lugansk regions, approved by the Ukrainian parliament on Tuesday, is "positive" and "provides the basis for the launch of a substantial constitutional process in Ukraine," which will help achieve peace in the country.
In its comments

Moscow also said that any attempts to prevent the law from coming into force by "certain political groups" in Ukraine might worsen the situation in the country's south-east and "undermine international and local politicians’ efforts" to solve the crisis.
