Ukraine’s Central Election Commission reported on the 26 May 2014 that with over 60% of ballots counted, billionaire Petro Poroshenko led in Ukraine’s presidential race, taking nearly 54% of the vote. The early presidential election in Ukraine was characterized by high turnout and a clear resolve by the authorities to hold what was a genuine election largely in line with international commitments and that respected fundamental freedoms, despite the hostile security environment in two eastern regions of the country, international observers concluded in a preliminary statement released on the 26 May 2014 by the OSCE Special Mission. Russia said it was 'open to dialogue' with the new president of Ukraine. |
