Ukraine is not planning to restore its status as a nuclear nation, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said.

"Ukraine neither was, nor is planning to renew its nuclear status," Foreign Ministry spokesman Yevhen Perebyinis said at a Tuesday briefing.

Such a position was clearly expressed by Acting Foreign Minister Andriy Deschytsia during his visit to the Hague, he added.
