Three subgroups are holding working meetings in the Belarusian capital of Minsk as part of the efforts by Russia, Ukraine and the OSCE regional security organization to bring peace to Ukraine's east.
"Ukraine's official representative, Valeriya Lutkovska, is absent from the session as she did last time," the DPR ministry said in a statement.
