The President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko thanked the European Council for a decision to extend sanctions against Russia. About this he wrote on the page in Facebook.
Poroshenko is calling the decision of the European Council fair.
“Together with a package of anti-Russian sanctions adopted by the United States, it is a vivid manifestation of the simultaneous transatlantic unity and solidarity in the fight against the aggressor and protect the territorial integrity of Ukraine!” – said the Ukrainian President.
