Ukrainian Premier Yulia Tymoshenko has described approving at first reading a draft law on increasing social standards as "a crime against Ukraine" and is sure it won't be adopted.
“I’d like to say that yesterday a crime against Ukraine, against
each person was committed,” she said, commenting on the draft law at a
meeting of the government on Wednesday.
The premier named the document “a nuclear bomb under Ukraine’s
financial system,” as Ukraine needs “the second budget” to increase
corresponding payments.
According to Tymoshenko, “people have been impudently,
unscrupulously and cynically swindled, and any new government, any new
president won’t be able to fulfill this.”
“I am sure there won’t be final voting for this crime,” Tymoshenko said.
