Poroshenko: No alternative to peaceful resolution of crisis in eastern Ukraine

Poroshenko said while accepting credentials from ambassadors of several foreign countries on Tuesday.

Poroshenko said he hoped that the new ambassadors will help increase the level of international support for Ukraine, restore peace in Donbas, and return Crimea to Ukraine, the presidential press service said.

"Noting that there is no alternative to a peaceful resolution of the crisis, the president thanked for diplomatic and practical assistance of countries and other partners in promoting the implementation of the Minsk agreements and countering Russian aggression," it said.

Poroshenko also mentioned the importance of implementing a reform program in Ukraine. "The association agreement with the EU is designed to serve as a cornerstone of our reforms and a road map of our European integration," Poroshenko said, adding that he hoped that all EU member-states would ratify the agreement by the end of the year.
