President Petro Poroshenko said that Kyiv will never accept Moscow’s conditions for resolving the Donbass conflict. At the meeting with former participants in the military operation in the country’s southeast he accused Moscow once again of aggressive aspirations and unwillingness to search for a peaceful solution to the issue. “The key to peace can be found neither in Kyiv, nor in Washington nor in Brussels. The Kremlin holds the key to peace. But if someone tries to impose Russia’s onerous terms on us, I would like to point out that it would be unacceptable not only for the president but for the entire Ukrainian nation as well, this is not a path leading to peace”, said the President. At the same time, the Ukrainian president stressed that Ukraine has a strong army. “We have a strong army so I am confident that we will achieve peace”, he said. He also stressed that it was his firm stance. “The presidential, parliamentary and local elections guarantee that there will be no return to the Russian empire”, he said. Source: sobytiya
