KIEV, Jan. 16 - Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko will go to the World Economic Forum in Davos (Switzerland), but he will not attend the Davos Ukrainian Lunch to be arranged by businessman and philanthropist Victor Pinchuk, presidential press secretary Svyatoslav Tsegolko said.

The move is an apparent response to Pinchuk's call for compromises in exchange for peace with Russia, a proposal which has been condemned by Poroshenko and other Ukrainian officials.
