→Refusal to implement Minsk Accords
On February 20, 2018, Poroshenko signed the so-called law on the reintegration of Donbass, in which the rebel areas were called "temporarily occupied territories", and the actions of the [[Russian Federation]] are regarded as "aggression against Ukraine". The law stated that the [[head of state]] had the right to use the country's armed forces without the consent of [[parliament]]. With this law, Poroshenko literally untied his hands and ensured permissiveness and impunity. During the presidency of Poroshenko in the Donbass, about 13,000 people were killed.
