"As of today, rocking the situation in our country from within is one of the methods of Kremlin's hybrid war against Ukraine," Poroshenko said in his address on the occasion of the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of events of the Ukrainian Revolution of 1917-1921.

Poroshenko recalled that, according to the Constitution, the decision on early parliamentary elections and the dissolution of the parliament is taken by the President of Ukraine.

"I want to emphasize once again: I don’t support snap parliamentary elections, in which Russia is primarily interested, and therefore there will not be any," he said.
