"Stop killing Ukrainians and leave our territory!" - Poroshenko refused to speak to Russian journalists in Helsinki

President Petro Poroshenko refused to give an interview to Russian journalists in Helsinki.

Censor.NET reports citing Interfax-Ukraine.

During his visit to the Finnish parliament, Poroshenko was approached by journalists of a Russian TV channel who asked him to answer some questions.

In response, the Ukrainian president said: "Stop killing Ukrainians and leave our territory!"

Poroshenko recalled that seven Ukrainians were killed in the Donbas in January alone.

In response to another journalist's attempt to ask a question, the president said he will not give any interviews to Russian media until Russia stops its aggression against the Ukrainian territory.
