Paris--The foreign ministers of Ukraine, Russia, France and Germany on Tuesday called for a ceasefire deal to be strictly implemented in eastern Ukraine, where fighting has persisted since the accord came into effect.

In a joint statement read by French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius after talks in Paris, the minister urged parties to "start with a total ceasefire and complete withdrawal of heavy weapons".
