KIEV, July 9 (Xinhua) -- Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers (CMU) has terminated the memorandum on cooperation in the anti-terrorism sphere between the Ukrainian and Russian governments, the CMU's press service said Wednesday.
The decision was made at a government meeting on Wednesday, it said, explaining that the cooperation between Ukrainian and Russian special services does not meet the national interests of Ukraine in the current climate.
