French president says no conditions for delivering Mistral ships to Russia
French President Francois Hollande said there were no conditions for delivering Mistral-type helicopter carriers to Russia despite new agreements on the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, reached during the Minsk summit overnight to Thursday.
Speaking at a news conference in Brussels after an extraordinary EU summit, Hollande said he hoped conditions for the deliveries of Mistral ships would shape up in the future, but he did not see any at the moment.

The French leader said that the issue of the Mistral helicopter carriers deliveries to Russia would depend on the implementation of the Ukrainian ceasefire agreement reached at the recent summit in the Belarusian capital of Minsk.
