(about 3 hours later)
President Petro O. Poroshenko said Monday that he was planning to meet in Kazakhstan on Jan. 15 with the leaders of Russia, Germany and France to discuss a peace settlement for eastern Ukraine. Ukraine and the West have accused Russia of fueling the rebellion in eastern Ukraine with troops and weapons, which Moscow has denied. Fighting in the east has claimed more than 4,700 lives since April, and a cease-fire reached in September has frequently been violated. Mr. Poroshenko said he believed there was “no military solution” to the conflict, adding that he would press Russia to withdraw its soldiers from Ukraine and seal the border.President Petro O.
