Kiev and pro-Russian rebels have signed off on a roadmap to implement a Ukraine peace deal thrashed out during marathon talks in Minsk, President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko said on Thursday.
"The contact group signed a document that we prepared with a great deal of tension," Poroshenko said of the deal, which Putin said was "a set of measures to implement the Minsk agreements", referring to a widely disregarded September peace deal.
