Ukraine is urging Russia not to interfere in Ukraine's domestic affairs, acting Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Deschytsia said.
"The stance of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry is as follows - the Russian Foreign Ministry should not interfere in domestic affairs of Ukraine," Deschytsia said at a news conference in Kyiv when commenting on Russia's statement regarding the events in Kharkiv overnight into March 15.
He said that everything that happens in Ukraine is the affair of Ukraine. Ukrainian authorities will resolve the issues themselves, and "Russian provocations in the cities in southeast of the country will be a failure."
