KIEV, July 5 – Accusations that Ukraine violated the copyrights of Russian designers while concluding a contract with China on the construction of small landing ships at Feodosiya’s Morye shipyard are groundless, a high-ranking military source told Interfax-Ukraine.

"The reports in some Russian mass media referring to the Rosoboronexport leadership that Ukraine violated copyrights of Russian designers while concluding the contract with the People's Republic of China on the construction of small hovercraft landing ships are absolutely groundless. It's a pity, but they are based on incorrect information," the source said.
