The 'Normandy format' on the settlement of the Donbas situation with participation of Ukraine, Russia, France and Germany will be resurrected in the near future, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said.

"The 'Normandy format' will be resurrected in the near future, despite any statements. First, one should stand for maintaining and reinforcement of the sanctions against Russia until complete cessation of aggression. This is the criterion of the efficiency evaluation of our diplomats," he said at the meeting with the representatives of the Ukrainian diplomatic institutions with participation of Polish President Andrzej Duda in Kyiv on Wednesday.
