President Obama
spoke today by phone with Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany to
discuss the recent upsurge in violence in eastern Ukraine resulting from
increased attacks by combined Russian-separatist
forces across the Line of Contact. President Obama noted Ukraine’s
progress in implementing its obligations under the Minsk agreements, and
reiterated that Russia must do the same. President Obama also
expressed his appreciation of the Chancellor’s leadership
in working to address the migration crisis in Europe, in particular her
recent decision to ease the burden on border countries by providing
haven to Syrian refugees.
