 Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has signed the so-called "stop masks-show-2" law at a meeting with business representative in Kyiv.

"The law, with its conditional name 'stop masks-show-2,' simplifies bringing to account the investigator, the prosecutor, the law enforcement officer who made illegal decisions to open criminal proceedings and which were later canceled by the court. Simply speaking, the perpetrators will bear personal responsibility, including financial responsibility, for unlawful prosecution," the head of state said, signing the law.

He also urged the Verkhovna Rada to speed up the consideration of the bill on business ombudsman at second reading.
