OREANDA-NEWS. At the NSDC session, President Petro Poroshenko noted that the Cabinet of Ministers must analyze economic aspect of consequences from the blockade in details shortly: consequences for the budget, deceleration of economic growth, situation in the energy sector.

«It is obvious that the actions of our initiators of blockade will cost something for Ukraine. The amount of this cost will be shown by evaluation. And we will show this bills not only to self-declared republicans, but also to «Samopomich», «Batkivshchyna» and other initiators and promoters of the blockade,» Petro Poroshenko said.

The President noted that the «rebellion» in the ATO area was organized by the political force that is trying to divert attention from the failures of its leader who hasn’t managed to solve the most acute municipal issue in two and a half mayoral terms and filled the most beautiful European city of Ukraine up with trash. The Head of State added that the organizers have made substantial efforts to provoke the use of force by the government. They even weren’t ashamed of spreading false information about the alleged disappearance of a disabled participant of the blockade.

«We will always respect participants of peaceful rallies, even though we may not share their requirements. But we will detain and bring to justice all people who come with weapons, machine guns, Molotov cocktails, explosives or grenades and blow up railroad tracks at the call of organizers-adventurers, even though they call themselves patriots. Is it permissible to allow armed «guest performers» to the rear of Ukrainian troops?» the President emphasized.
