The Kremlin is not monitoring the events around the return of former President Pyotr Poroshenko to Ukraine, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists on Monday, APA reports citing TASS.
"No, we are not keeping track of this," he insisted.
Poroshenko has now turned out to be among the political foes of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky. "He is in the opposition. But this does not serve as any reason for us to closely monitor this [situation]," Peskov emphasized.
"Generally, Zelensky’s political opponents are having a hard time in Ukraine. This is obvious. We are witnessing this," Peskov concluded.
