MINSK, 3 September (BelTA) – The state secretaries of the Security Councils of the United States, Poland, Ukraine and Belarus discussed at a meeting in Warsaw possible proposals to enhance the efficiency of the Normandy talks on Ukraine, State Secretary of the Security Council of Belarus Stanislav Zas told the media on 3 September, BelTA has learned.
The secretaries of the Security Councils talked over the handling of the crisis in eastern Ukraine.

The situation in Ukraine leaves a considerable impact on security in the Eastern European region in general.
