KIEV, April 28 (Xinhua) -- Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko announced Friday that his country and Belarus have agreed to complete border demarcation in the near future.
"We agreed to complete the demarcation of our state borders in the near future, which unfortunately has not been carried out in the recent years," Poroshenko told reporters after his working visit to Belarus, where he held talks with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
Ukraine and Belarus signed a border agreement in May 1997 and started border demarcation in November 2013.
The two ex-Soviet neighbors share a land border of around 1,084 km.
