Elections in Donbas to be held strictly under Ukrainian law - Poroshenko

The President said this in an interview with the Ukrainian TV channels on Sunday. "I treat this as a private thought of Mr. Morel. I am sure that the Ukrainian side adheres to position on the implementation of the Minsk Agreements clearly and consistently. The OSCE functions as the moderator. It's important to discuss any proposals, but the elections will be conducted under the Ukrainian legislation. If it is necessary to make some changes, they should be discussed by the Ukrainian parliament," Poroshenko noted. The President stressed that the elections in Donbas would be held strictly according to the Ukrainian legislation, and Ukraine would offer no other options.
