On Saturday, the III Congress of the People’s Union "Our Ukraine" (NSNU) was held in Ukraine. Its honorary chairman President Viktor Yushchenko, speaking at the congress, harshly criticized the activities of the NSNU and announced the need to change the party leadership. On this congress ended his work - its second stage will pass in three weeks. Reforming the party will begin in the coming days. According to the Ukrainian newspaper Kommersant , Viktor Yushchenko entrusted and. O. The chairman of the Presidium of the NSNU to the Immortal Roman to elect the head of the Organizing Committee for the preparation of the second stage of the Congress of the First Deputy Head of the Secretariat of President Arseniy Yatsenyuk at the Party Council.
The delegates of the congress before entering the hall of one of the recreation center, in addition to orange weighty folders, gave the book of Sergei Kuzin "Donetsk Mafia". The distribution of the book, which refers to the involvement of some ministers and members of the Party of Regions in the criminal world, the organizers of the congress called the manifestation of democracy. In front of the stage, an additional row of green chairs was put, on the backs of which the surnames hung with surnames- at the congress they expected the arrival of the leader of Buthe Yulia Tymoshenko and after Alexander Moroz. Later it turned out that both politicians were ignored by the NSNU Congress, the publication notes.
The President of Ukraine arrived on time. At the side entrance to the recreation center, Viktor Yushchenko met Roman Immortal. When the Honorary Chairman of the NSNU entered the hall, the delegates exploded with stormy ovations that turned into the chanting of "Yu-Co!" The first to the tribune was the immortal and, after a short introductory word, invited the head of state to the microphone. The hall again burst into a friendly chanting "Yu -henhen-ko!"
The President briefly greeted delegates and almost immediately began criticism of the party’s activities. He accused the NSNU of that after the presidential election, she could not develop "a clear, simple and clear idea of her activity." “The only idea that the party’s leadership repeated as a spell was the phrase“ We are the Presidential Party ”. I know and respect it, my dear ones. But I want to say that this is not enough,” Viktor Yushchenko said, and “in order to avoid speculation” emphasized that he was always with his party, there will be and will be. ” The president’s words caused long stormy applause in the hall.
However, the most stringent criticism of the Honorary Chairman of the Party managed the NSNU. At the same time, Roman Immortal was forced to listen to the president standing, since he did not have enough space. For the entire time of the performance of the head of state, he never once looked at his party’s colleagues and, crossing his hands behind his back, did not look away from the illuminated figure of the president on stage, the newspaper writes.
Meanwhile, Viktor Yushchenko said that "party construction is administrative - from top to bottom" led to the fact that party organizations in many areas exist only on paper. The President accused the party leadership of that due to the practice of "recruiting" people who occupy political or administrative positions, the NSNU actually became the appendage of power structures.
Yushchenko suggested re -register party cells to clean them of "dead souls and random fellow travelers." "I do not want the party to turn into some closed joint -stock company, where the main shareholders can monopolinely decide what the party needs, but in fact decide their own interests or close to their own," the head of the Ukrainian state said to the growing applause of the hall. He later clarified that we are talking about the party’s council and its executive committee and especially the party presidium. "
The immortal novel continued to stand - the chairman of the NSNU Presidium - the hall of the hall never supported.
At the end of the speech, Viktor Yushchenko said that “the hall is not always the best option for the formation of working documents,” and suggested holding a congress in two stages - in the first part to create working groups on the formation of governing bodies and amending the party’s authorized documents, and in the second to consider and approve prepared proposals.
"Our Ukraine" will be in opposition to the current government
In turn, the head of the Secretariat of the President of Ukraine, Viktor Baloga, believes that "our Ukraine" will be in the opposition to the current government, Forum reports.
"I believe that it is necessary to fulfill the station wagon of national unity, which allowed Viktor Yanukovych to become the Prime Minister, as well as to form a parliamentary coalition," Baloga said.
“In a situation where“ Our Ukraine ”and the Party of Regions cannot agree and their negotiations have come to a dead end, that political force that is in the minority today, which does not have 226 deputies in parliament, it should go to the opposition. It is quite familiar for“ our Ukraine ”, she knows how to work in the opposition,” he added.
The head of the secretariat also emphasized that Yushchenko will guarantee the rights of the parliamentary majority and the opposition. “There is no problem in the fact that the president will not be presented in the parliamentary coalition with his political force, this does not prevent him from fulfilling his duties. In addition, to say that the president will be in opposition to any political force, there is no reason. The president is a guarantor of the constitution for the majority, and for the opposition, the president was equivalent from these processes,” the head of the secretariat said.
Yushchenko: It hurts that the orange coalition "is in a complex dialogue"
During a meeting with the Ukrainian society in Budapest in the premises of the state authority of the Ukrainians of Hungary, Yushchenko said that the “direct duty” of our Ukraine is to establish cooperation with the Central Political Political Forces that did not fall into parliament, Korrespondent.Net reports.
"It is annoying that under the circumstances of the elections outside the active political process today, such political forces remain as the People’s Party of Ukraine, as the Party" time ", like the PP and many other centric and right forces that stood at healthy state national positions. Yesterday at the congress I spoke and said that the direct duty of" our Ukraine " - these political forces to use the logic of general projects of general general projects. actions, ”Yushchenko said in particular.
Speaking to the diaspora, the head of Ukraine emphasized that in the political sense he was “hurt to some kind of measure” that the orange coalition is “in a complex dialogue”. Sometimes, according to him, these are problems of ideas, intentions, economic, as well as an external course.
In particular, Viktor Yushchenko noted, a lot of time by representatives of the orange camp was lost on discussions about different approaches to the problems of European, and especially Euro -Atlantic integration, to the problems of privatization and reprivatization, around the compensation of savings lost in the former savings bank of the USSR.
“These are things that are behind either actions, or you can’t fool the nation more,” said Yushchenko. Therefore, according to him, it was annoying when the orange forces formed a coalition for three whole months. “And these are partners, these are friends, these are twinms, these are those people who should breathe in the same air. Sometimes, you know, enemies agree in a day,” the head of the Ukrainian state said.
