UN chief says Russian troops in Donbas 'not peacekeepers at all'

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has said he does not view the Russian troops that may be deployed in Donbas as peacekeepers, Report informs, citing RIA Novosti.

"I am also concerned about the perversion of the concept of peacekeeping. I am proud of the achievements of UN Peacekeeping operations in which so many Blue Helmets have sacrificed their lives to protect civilians. When troops of one country enter the territory of another country without its consent, they are not impartial peacekeepers. They are not peacekeepers at all," he said.
