President: We will do everything possible for Nadiya Savchenko to return home this month


President Petro Poroshenko emphasizes that a huge amount of efforts was made to bring Ukrainian pilot Nadiya Savchenko illegally convicted in Russia back to Ukraine.
“We will do everything possible for Nadiya to return home as soon as possible. I’ll do everything to bring her back this month,” Petro Poroshenko told journalists in Turkey answering the question about possible exchange of Nadiya Savchenko for Russian servicemen convicted in Ukraine.

The President reminded that in the course of his previous visit to Turkey he had declared willingness to use any constitutional powers to bring Nadiya back to Ukraine. “Thus, in case I receive such an address, I will use it immediately,” the Head of State noted.
According to him, significant part of his today’s  negotiations was dedicated to Nadiya Savchenko.
“At the same time, I would like to avoid politicization of that process when certain politicians, government officials or civil servants want to make a good hand on that. No politician except our foreign partners will be involved in that,” he said.
“However, we will talk about it when the presidential plane with Nadiya lands in the Ukrainian airport,” Petro Poroshenko said adding that “too much is at stake”.
