Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko has said that he would not sign the law on the national budget for 2010 if the budget does not contain the financing of bridges being built over the Dnipro River and funds for repair work on the road across the Dnipro hydroelectric power station dam, he said speaking on the Day of Zaporizhia on October 10.
The president said that he signed a decree on October 9, where he
instructed the cabinet to find the funds for the construction of
bridges and reconstruction of the road across the Dnipro hydroelectric
power station dam.
“I won’t sign the 2010 budget, which would not foresee the financing of the objects,” he said.
As reported, the draft budget for 2010 does not foresee funds for
the building of two new bridges over the Dnipro River in Zaporizhia.
Over UAH 30 million is needed to repair the road across the Dnipro hydroelectric power station dam.
