Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko has said that the criminal cases into the Maidan events must be sent to the courts.

"On the eve of the second anniversary of the Maidan I have a very firm stand that the restrictions and arrests are only preliminary measures. I demand that the measures should be final, that the cases should be transferred to the court, so that there should be court judgments to be done with the prosecution of those who were directly involved in the destruction of the Ukrainian democracy on the Maidan," Poroshenko told journalists in Ashgabat on Thursday.
