Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and German Federal Chancellor Angela Merkel have discussed during a telephone conversation the agenda of the chancellor’s visit to Ukraine this autumn. “The sides discussed the agenda of Angela Merkel’s visit to Ukraine, which will be made this autumn,” the press service of the head of state reported. The parties also discussed the situation in Donbas, the prospects for continuing sanctions against Russia and the issues of the bilateral agenda, including energy security.
