The position of Poroshenko’s heralds on Donbass continues to gradually soften
The heralds of Petro Poroshenko no longer mention the need to control the border with Russia in the Donbass as one of the key conditions for holding elections in the DPR and LPR.

“The key thing is that security conditions must be met - troops must be withdrawn, disarmament must take place, and so on. The second question is that these elections should be held according to Ukrainian legislation, with the admission of Ukrainian media and political parties.
