Ukrainian business tycoon Petro Poroshenko has
claimed victory in the country's presidential election. Exit polls show that he
will receive 55% of the vote.
Announcing his victory, Poroshenko promised to forge closer links with
the EU and restore peace in restive eastern regions, where pro-Russian
separatists disrupted voting. Poroshenko has also said he would never recognize
Russia's annexation of Crimea.
The apparent president-elect promised he would support a parliamentary election in the country later this year.
