“We fix the right to self-defence under article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations. This further strengthens the legal basis for the use of the Armed Forces, expanding their abilities in the region. This strengthens the arguments in favor of granting Ukraine defensive weapons. The law although reglamentary details the military aspect of our struggle, the key proclaims peace, political and diplomatic way”, – says Poroshenko.

He noted that to maintain in Parliament the bills demonstrate to Ukrainians in occupied Donbas that the government has not forgotten about them.

“The law will strengthen our position in the struggle for the liberation of hostages and in the matter of the possible deployment of UN peacekeepers in the Donbas. Russia as an aggressor country will have no right to participate in this mission, which should be deployed throughout the occupied territory, including temporarily we do not control the Ukrainian-Russian border”, – said Petro Poroshenko.

The President of Ukraine added that despite the horrors that frightened opponents of society, the worst predictions have not come true, but the army was strengthened, there was a transition to a contract basis, and the like.

“Night before last I had a long conversation with Irina Gerashchenko, my special representative in the Minsk group, just after her return from the capital of Belarus. The Russians did not hide their hopes for the failure of voting in the Verkhovna Rada. Especially great hopes are pinned on the rejection of the draft Law on the prolongation of local self-government. Why? Because it would play into their hands at the line of contact and help relieve the burden of the sanctions. And responsible majority voting will help our army continue to hold the Fort with a minimum of casualties, and diplomats to intensify international pressure on Russia.

Grateful to the deputies for the responsibility”, – noted Poroshenko.
