Poroshenko says aggression against Ukraine cannot justify failure of reforms

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko says that aggression against Ukraine cannot be justification for the failure of reform, according to an UNIAN correspondent.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UAA1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This is absolutely wrong," he said at a joint press conference with U.S. Vice President Joe Biden in Kyiv on Monday.

"The most important reform, which has been launched and which has translated into an institutional structure, is the fight against corruption. We have managed to select an anti-corruption prosecutor, engaging an independent commission," he said.

Another successful example of the reform is national police, he added.
