UN peacekeepers won't be deployed to Donbas according to Russian scenario
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said he is confident that a United Nation peacekeeping mission to Donbas would be deployed all over the region.
"Of course, it won't be the Russian scenario," Poroshenko said at a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Toronto.
"The peacekeeping mission should have the United Nations mandate and be deployed to the entire territory of Donbas up to the border between Ukraine and Russia to prevent troops and weapons from getting to the occupied territory," Poroshenko said.
"I believe that the UN peacekeeping operation will be a real breakthrough in the peaceful settlement. In this endeavor, expertise and advice of our Canadian friends would be of great value for us," Poroshenko said on Facebook following negotiations with the Canadian prime minister.
"Also we have talked about reforms in Ukraine, and I appreciate that Ukraine remains one of the priority countries for Canada's international assistance," he said.
