The Ukrainian Justice Ministry will not send requests to the Russian Justice Ministry on arranging a video conference to question former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, Ukrainian Justice Minister Pavlo Petrenko has said.

"I can only send a request and ask publicly for Yanukovych to come here and provide testimony," Petrenko said sarcastically when asked by journalists whether the Ukrainian Justice Ministry planned to ask the Russian Justice Ministry to arrange a video conference to question Yanukovych.

"That's all. I personally won't make any other requests," Petrenko added.
