Poroshenko Signs Law to Allow Foreign Troops in Ukraine

• http://www.telesurtv.net, Poroshenko Signs Law to

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko signed off on amendments to a law Thursday to regulate the admission and presence of foreign troops in the country, thus legally allowing international militaries to operate in the country.

The amendments establish the necessary legal background to have foreign troops semi-permanently stationed in the country. This will also speed up and ease their deployment within the territory, particularly to Eastern Ukraine, where fighting between Kiev and separatist rebels continues, and eliminate the need for additional legal authorization before doing so.

The amendments were adopted by the Ukrainian Parliament earlier this month, when Poroshenko said he would do everything in his power to speed up peacekeeping operations.
