Poroshenko ‘cancels’ expired Martial Law in Ukraine

The term of martial law in ten Ukrainian regions expired on December 26. This was stated by the oligarch-president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko during a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council.

“Now at 14:00 the martial law is terminated. This is my principal decision, it is based on an analysis of all components of the current security situation in the state” – Poroshenko said.

Let’s recall: this regime was introduced due the fact that Russian military arrested Ukrainian ships for illegal invading their water territory at Kerch Strait.
