KIEV, June 15 – President Petro Poroshenko is expecting to restore the state defense order for Kiev-based Antonov state-run enterprise as part of the company's integration into Ukroboronprom state concern.

"It's not only possible but is also a priority task for leaders – of both [Antonov] enterprise and Ukroboronprom. [I] would like to see Antonov's products in the state defense order for 2016," Poroshenko said after he visited Antonov on Saturday, before the company's participation in the Le Bourget-2015 international air show.
