KIEV, Aug. 31 – President Petro Poroshenko again stressed that the draft amendments to the Constitution do not envisage any special status for Donbas.

"There is no separate status [for Donbas], however hard you may look for it. I open the working Constitution. "Article 92 The following are determined exclusively by the laws of Ukraine: 16) the status of the capital of Ukraine; that is there is the status in the working Constitution, it is good and it should be retained. However, then we read "the special status of other cities." The current Constitution has this, and they wanted to use this provision of the Constitution," Poroshenko said on Saturday at a meeting with representatives of territorial communities.
