MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 20th May, 2019) New Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's words about overcoming the language split should also apply to implementation of the Minsk agreements in general, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at an Orthodox Easter reception at the Russian Foreign Ministry on Monday.

"Today, in his inaugural speech, Zelenskiy spoke out against attempts to split Ukrainian society by language. There is no doubt that this should fully extend to the religious sphere, including in the wider context of the comprehensive implementation of the Minsk agreements on overcoming the internal Ukrainian conflict," Lavrov said.
