BC, Riga, 18.07.2014.Print version
Crisis in Ukraine poses threat to European and global security, Latvian Ambassador to Ukraine Argita Daudze said in an interview with the Latvian Television show "Rita panorama" today, cites LETA.

She said that a lot of media have run Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko's statement describing the downing of a passenger plane in Ukraine as an act of terrorism.

 

She agrees with Poroshenko that it is not only Ukraine's problem, but a threat to European and global security, and joint effort is needed to overcome it.

 

The situation in Ukraine has turned into a global security crisis, and in order to solve it, the entire international community must be involved, Daudze added.

 

As reported, Malaysia Airlines airliner on a flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur crashed in eastern Ukraine Thursday, killing 298 people who were in it.

 

According to Ukraine's government, the plane was downed by pro-Moscow rebels.
