Terrorist threat must not be allowed to spread to other eastern southern regions - Turchynov
KYIV. April 30 (Interfax) - Ukraine's interim president and parliamentary speaker Oleksandr Turchynov said the unrest in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions must not be allowed to spread to other eastern and southern regions of the country.
"The first task we are to fulfill now is to prevent the terrorist threat from spreading to other regions of Ukraine," Turchynov told the local administration leaders in Kyiv on Wednesday.
He said attempts are being made to upset stability in the Kharkiv, Odesa, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhya, Mykolayiv and Kherson regions.
"The mercenaries and special units working in Ukraine's territory have been given the task to attack these regions. Therefore, I would like to emphasize that the task we are to fulfill now is to prevent the terrorist threat from spreading, first of all to the Kharkiv and Odesa regions," Turchynov said.
