Leaders of the electoral list of the civil bloc "Pora–PRP" Vakhtang Kipiani and Taras Stetskiv are on a working visit to Volyn. In Lutsk, during a press conference, Taras Stetskiv, regarding the unification of the orange coalition, stated: "The thing is precisely that either we unite or we don't unite. A boy and a girl either get married or they don't get married. When such things are said – let's unite around 'Our Ukraine' – then it begins: who visits whom, whose signature is first or second."
Taras Stetskiv continued: "This is all not serious. 'Our Ukraine' put forward two preliminary conditions. The first was – to recognize Viktor Yushchenko as the leader of the orange coalition. That, more or less, could still have been accepted. Although even Kuchma did not allow himself such a thing in the parliament, which in 2000 was headed by Plyushch, even Kuchma did not demand from that majority to recognize him, Kuchma, as the leader of that majority. But God be with it.
And the second demand is absolutely clear – the inadmissibility of criticism of the current government and to recognize Yekhanurov as the future prime minister. And that is when everything stalled. It is clear that Yuliya Volodymyrivna would never have signed such an agreement. When 'Our Ukraine' removed this problem, then we started having capers from Tymoshenko's side."
