Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko has said he will make every effort to prevent the establishment of a dictatorship in the country, Presidential Press Secretary Iryna Vannykova told journalists in Kyiv on Friday.
According to Vannykova, the president is anxious about the growth of
cases in which “Ukrainian Premier Yulia Tymoshenko openly and in public
ignores national legislation.”
Vannykova said that recently Tymoshenko has promised to gain her objectives in spite of court rulings.
Vannykova said that among such cases is the promise to approve the
2010 national budget under a government resolution, and her calls to
privatize OJSC Odesa Port-Side Chemical Plant in spite of a court
decision to ban the plant’s privatization.
