Employees of the Lutsk District Employment Center recognize Viktor Yushchenko as the popularly elected President of Ukraine. "As a result of the falsifications of the presidential elections, a danger of a state coup and the loss of integrity and sovereignty hangs over Ukraine," it is stated in the Address to Volyn residents. Employees of the district employment center appealed to colleagues in the system of the regional employment service, all civil servants of state executive bodies and local self-government of Volyn who swore allegiance to Ukraine to support the expression of will of the residents of the Volyn region and Ukraine. Due to the fact that the Center's employees, as civil servants, do not have the right to strike, it was through an open letter that they expressed their civic position. In their letter, the employment service employees call on everyone who cares about what our state will be like tomorrow to stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of democracy and the Constitution of Ukraine.
