Kerry criticizes Poroshenko's words about need to recapture Donetsk airport

US Secretary of State John Kerry has criticized the words of the President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, about the need to recapture Donetsk airport.

"If President Poroshenko is advocating starting a force operation, we would have asked him to think twice before taking such action," Gazeta.ru cited Kerry as saying.

Petro Poroshenko said earlier that Ukrainian troops will retake the airport from the militia of the self-proclaimed DPR.
