U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Ukrainian opposition leaders, at a meeting on Saturday, "reached an agreement on concrete further moves" to settle Ukraine's domestic conflict "and not just on expressions of solidarity with the Ukrainian people," Ukrainian opposition lawmaker Petro Poroshenko told reporters.

The meeting was held at the current Munich Security Conference.
