Ukraine to demand broader sanctions for those who 'nationalized' enterprises in Donbas - Poroshenko

Ukraine will demand broader sanctions for those who 'nationalized' Ukrainian enterprises in the territory of the certain areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said during negotiations with foreign ministers of Poland and the United Kingdom.

"Another evidence of Russia's occupation of a part of eastern Ukraine. President Poroshenko commented on the 'grab' of Ukrainian enterprises in the occupied territories this way. All these actions will definitely be punished. Ukraine will demand broader sanctions for those who took over Ukrainian enterprises," Ukrainian presidential spokesperson Sviatoslav Tseholko said on Facebook on Wednesday.

He said that it was discussed during Poroshenko's negotiations with foreign ministers of Poland and the UK.
