The restoration of Ukraine’s control over its state border on the temporarily occupied territories is crucial for implementation of the Minsk agreements.
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said this on the occasion of the Day of Border Guard.
"The issue of borders is crucial in the context of implementation of the Minsk agreements," Poroshenko said.
He noted that over 15,000 Ukrainian border guards had participated in military clashes in Donbas since the onset of the antiterrorist operation. Out of this number, 67 border guards were killed.
