Amendments to the Ukrainian constitution should be targeted and comply with every prescribed procedure, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said.

"To my mind, constitutional amendments should be targeted and thoroughly prepared on the basis of a broad public debate, with the participation of Ukrainian lawyers and evaluation by such esteemed European entities as the Venice Commission," Poroshenko said at a Verkhovna Rada meeting dedicated to the Ukrainian Constitution Day on Tuesday.
