March 24, 2016 (UNIAN) Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko
believes a decision on the release of Ukrainian military pilot and
parliamentarian Nadiya Savchenko and her return home can be made only after the
sentence handed down on her by a Russian court takes legal effect.
"I do not expect any decisions
before the so-called court judgment takes effect," Poroshenko told
journalists in Kharkiv, pointing out that the sentence should come into effect
in early April. "As soon as this happens, Nadia should be immediately
returned to Ukraine," he said.
