PARIS (Reuters) - French President Francois Hollande repeated demands for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine and the withdrawal of heavy weapons following a meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg on Monday.
"The Minsk accord is the only way to re-establish peace," Hollande told a news conference. "France's position is that the Minsk accord must be fully implemented, with immediate effect, and that no lapses should be tolerated. The ceasefire and the withdrawal of heavy weapons should be respected."
