On March 27, in Donetsk, a joint briefing was held between the Head of the Donetsk People's Republic Alexander Zakharchenko and the Chairman of the DPR People's Council Denis Pushilin.

The prolonged pause in the announcement of the American position on Ukraine ends. The new White House administration had reviewed the situation in that country and made an unexpected for the Kiev authorities decision.

Whoever Denis Voronenkov was – an opponent or a proponent of power, - his murder in the very centre of Kiev is perceived as unspeakable audacity for Ukraine that aspires to European democratic values. It would not be surprising if Ukrainian figures were to use this event as a ground for political speculation, given the status of the deceased.

The main objective of the introduction of temporary administrations in enterprises that worked in the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic under the Ukrainian jurisdiction is to provide social security to the employees of these enterprises. It was stated by the Chairman of the DPR People’s Council in a meeting with the secretaries of the primary organizations of the public movement “Donetsk Republic” on March 23.

On March 17, a constituent meeting of the Integration Committee “Russia – Donbass” was held in the Crimea. We can say without exaggeration that it is a historic event.

On March 17, a meeting of deputies with the participants of the children project “Peace to the World!”, which activity was aimed at establishing a dialogue between the children of the DPR, the Russian Federation and European countries, was held during the plenary meeting of the DPR People’s Council.

Following a meeting of the Contact group in Minsk, the permanent plenipotentiary representatives of DPR and LPR in the negotiations Denis Pushilin and Vladislav Deynego said that Ukraine had violated the International Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Bombings.

On March 15, a regular meeting of the Contact group on the peaceful settlement of the conflict in Donbass was held in Minsk. The meeting had on its agenda issues related to a failed separation of forces near Stanitsa Luganskaya, the situation in the area of the Donetsk filtration plant and the exchange of prisoners.

Consumer rights protection activity is necessary in building of any state. The DPR’s Law “On consumer protection”, which was adopted by the People’s Council on June 5, 2015, stipulates the regulation of relations between consumers and producers and the rights of consumers to acquire goods of good quality, safe for life and health.

The decree “On contact line” will streamline the process of movement outside crossing points and thus protect citizens of the DPR from illegal entry into the territory of the state. This was reported by the Chairman of DPR People’s Council Denis Pushilin during an interview with business portal DNR LIVE.
