President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said this at a joint press conference with President of Finland Sauli Sauli Niinistö in Helsinki, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"Talking about energy cooperation, we count on Finland's principled position on the Nord Stream 2 project. The so-called commercial attractiveness of the given project carries a number of political risks,” Poroshenko said.
