MOSCOW. April 21 (Interfax) - A meeting between the European Union countries' ambassadors and State Duma members, due on Wednesday, will focus mainly on the situation in Ukraine, a spokesman for the EU Delegation's office in Moscow, Soren Liborius, told Interfax on Tuesday.

When asked whether there will be a discussion of the situation around the EU anti-Russian sanctions, he stressed that the issue lies within Brussels' remit.

The meeting attendees will not be making any decisions regarding the sanctions, only Brussels makes the decision, Liborius said.
