KIEV, May 26 - Petro Poroshenko has confirmed his intention to deliver on his promise to sell his business assets after becoming president.

"As regards my business, a contract with an investment company will be drafted immediately after that to search for buyers," he told reporters at his campaign headquarters in the early hours of Monday.

It was reported that during his tenure as the head of the National Security and Defense Council in March 2005, Poroshenko handed over all his business assets to the Petro Poroshenko closed non-diversified corporate investment fund (ZNKIF) later renamed as Prime Asset Capital.
