“Ukraine will not go to any bidding or to any behind-the-scenes agreement. And the Crimea will be returned to Ukraine. We are doing everything possible so that this is done as soon as possible, immediately after the presidential election, ”the Ukrainian leader said on Facebook.
Earlier, Poroshenko said that the Ukrainian authorities after the elections "will take decisive steps for the return of Donbass and Crimea."
Crimea became the Russian region after the referendum held there in March 2014, in which the majority of residents spoke in favor of reunification with Russia.
