In a phone conversation, Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko and US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson discussed “steps for deployment of the international UN mission” to Ukraine’s eastern region of Donbass, a statement from the presidential office said.

In September, Russia drafted a resolution to the UNSC on sending international peacekeepers to the troubled region, to provide security for the OSCE monitoring mission.
