NEW YORK – President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has said that there will be no alternative to sanctions if one of the signatories of the Minsk agreements fails to implement them.
“Ukraine is committed to follow the letter and the spirit of the Minsk agreements. We demand the same approach from other signatories that have lately resorted to the language of blackmail. Otherwise, there is no alternative to sanctions, and even the strengthening [of sanctions]. As well as this, there is no alternative to the peaceful resolution of the crisis,” Poroshenko said while speaking at the UN General Assembly in New York on Sept. 30.
