Poroshenko suggests creating group of Ukraine's international friends for peaceful de-occupation of Crimea
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko initiates the creation of an international group of friends of Crimea's de-occupation with the aim of coordinating joint actions in this direction.
"I would like to propose the idea of creating an international group of Crimea's de-occupation friends to coordinate joint steps and actions. And I plan to discuss this initiative in details in New York at the UN General Assembly," he said at the 14th annual meeting of the Yalta European Strategy (YES) titled "Has the world become new? And what does this mean for Ukraine?" in Kyiv on Friday.
Poroshenko said that Ukraine stands for the peaceful ousting of Russia from Crimea it occupied.
According to him, sanctions against the Russian Federation should be introduced in accordance with the Minsk agreements, and the price of aggression must hurt the aggressor.
"They must return what they illegally seized," the Ukrainian president said.
