The United States is already taking part in the Normandy Format (Germany, France, Ukraine and Russia) and will continue working in it, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said.
“I want to clear up any kind of discussions that it would be more efficient for us to have the U.S. engaged in the Normandy Format. I emphasize: they [the Americans] were engaged all the time, including the time under the previous administration, and they will be, because family names changed but there was [always] a certain diplomat, with the rank of Ambassador, who was completely aware of all the content of the Normandy Format talks and they were coordinated with our American partners,” Poroshenko told a press conference in Kyiv on May 14 in response to a question asked by Kyiv-based Interfax agency.
