November 17, 2016 (www.president.gov.ua) On November 14, 2016, President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko paid his
first official visit to the Kingdom of Sweden. The agenda included
meetings with Prime Minister of Sweden Stefan Löfven, Speaker of the
Riksdag Urban Ahlin and leader of the Moderate Party Anna Kinberg Batra.
In the course of the meeting with
the President of Ukraine, Prime Minister of Sweden S.Löfven recalled that the
EU has agreed on a firm response to Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea and
the city of Sevastopol, and its aggression in Eastern Ukraine.
In the framework of the official visit to
Sweden, President Petro Poroshenko visited the State Archive of Sweden. The
Head of State examined the Latin version of the Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk and
other documents of Ukrainian Cossacks stored in the State Archive of Sweden. The
document dated after 1710, and consists of 13 pages. “This is one of the first
Constitutions on the European continent and a symbol of the Cossack state and
democracy. It is very important for Ukrainians,” Petro Poroshenko said. The
State Archive of Sweden pays special attention to this historic document, which
is securely stored in a separate vault with steady moisture, temperature and
other conditions necessary for its preservation.
