WARSAW, May 27 /TASS/. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has canceled his visit to Warsaw, the Polish News Agency (PAP) said on Wednesday with reference to diplomatic sources.

Poroshenko was supposed to meet Polish outgoing President Bronislaw Komorowski on Wednesday afternoon. Late on Wednesday, the two presidents were supposed to watch a football match between Ukraine's Dnipro football club and Spanish Seville at the national stadium in Warsaw.

Reports appeared in the media on Tuesday that Poroshenko was planning to meet Polish President Elect Andrzej Duda and incumbent President Bronislaw Komorowski in Warsaw. However, the Polish news agency PAP said later that the Ukrainian leader would only meet Komorowski and that the president elect would be unable to meet Poroshenko because of busy schedule and the need to go to Brussels because he is still a European Parliament deputy.
