France expects to monitor Ukraine ceasefire in coming days


PARIS (Reuters) - France expects to launch a joint operation with Germany "in the coming days" to monitor a ceasefire between the Ukrainian army and separatists in the east of the country, the French defence minister said on Sunday.

Last month, France and Germany offered to deploy drones as part of efforts by the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to reinforce monitoring of the ceasefire in Ukraine, and a German government source said on Saturday that Berlin was considering deploying soldiers.
