Today, when the world commemorates the victims of terrible terrorist attacks in New York in 2011, Ukraine suffers from a new wave of terrorism, in the fight against which all of the world’s democracies should unite.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said this at a ceremony to present credentials to the ambassadors of several countries on Thursday, the presidential press service reported.
“The crash of the MH17 plane proved that terrorism is a tumor whose spread is dangerous to the human race. All of the world’s democracies should unite their efforts in combating this problem,” Poroshenko said.
He said that the security guarantees that were given to Ukraine, including the Budapest Memorandum, were not working. “International legal mechanisms were powerless to prevent aggression against Ukraine. We should find a solution together in various multilateral formats – NATO, the European Union, the United Nations – as to how maintain peace and stability in the world,” Poroshenko said.
Poroshenko thanked many friends and partners “for their valuable support in this critical moment of defending the sovereignty and security of Ukraine, as well as assistance in solving the most pressing economic problems.”
