Ukraine will regain control over its borders - Volker

The United States supports a democratic Ukraine and is confident that it will regain control over its territories, including the territory of Crimea temporarily occupied by Russia, U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations Kurt Volker has said.

He wrote this on his Twitter account ahead of the second round of presidential elections in Ukraine.

"In advance of Sunday's election I wanted to reiterate that the U.S. is here for the long haul and we're here to support a peaceful, strong, democratic, prosperous, secure, Ukraine that sees its borders and territories, including Crimea, fully restored," he wrote.

The second round of presidential elections in Ukraine will be held on April 21.
