DISINFO: The West is guilty of disrupting Russia-Ukraine peace deals

France and Germany, among other EU nations, played a significant role in the preparation of the Minsk Agreements, in collaboration with Ukraine and Russia. The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) also had a crucial part in this process.

Several disarmament initiatives have been launched since then.
