KIEV, Dec. 30 – Ukraine will soon synchronize with Europe its sanctions against Russia, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko says.

"Positions almost on all clauses of European sanctions are or will be adequately reflected in the Ukrainian [sanctions] soon," he said at a press conference in Kiev on Monday.

Ukraine coordinates the issue of its sanctions with the leaders of the countries which have already imposed additional costs on Russia, Poroshenko said. "I can promise that our positions on sanctions are very much synchronized, and the sanctions are synchronously coordinated at the level of the leaders of the states," he said.
