Ukrainian Interior Minister Yuriy Lutsenko is calling on all democratic parties to unite and does not rule out the possibility of heading this united movement. He said this at the second stage of the III congress of the political party "People's Union 'Our Ukraine'." \n \nIn particular, Lutsenko said that by the end of the year a decision by democratic parties and organizations on the possibility of unification should be adopted. \n \nAccording to him, "if the leaders and petty leaders do not understand this, then let honest activists who want this with all their might adopt this decision." He called for an end to "nomenklatura intrigues." \n \nLutsenko proposes that, starting in February, joint meetings be held in the regions on unification into a powerful democratic force and to determine the key tasks of the democratic movement. He believes that all of this should take place through direct voting by members of democratic forces "in halls, in stadiums, on squares, through a 'black council' to elect new leadership and begin a new offensive for democracy." \n \nHe believes that this will bring real cleansing and that leadership will be elected that people trust. \n \nAddressing Bezsmertnyy in this regard, Lutsenko called out: "Take off your tie, get into the staff wagon and lead this movement, Roman Petrovych, because you are the foundation of such a movement." He believes that this is exactly the approach and such renewal that President of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko had in mind when speaking at the first stage of the NSNU congress. "When on all the squares of Ukraine in spring, when the buds swell, when the leaves unfurl, when the drums of revolution thunder, when the will to victory awakens in hearts, then we will sing together, together we are many, and we will go on the offensive for Ukraine," said Lutsenko. \n \nLater, to journalists, Lutsenko said that "in Ukraine there is not a single self-sufficient democratic orange force, and the main task is to unite." \n \nHe noted that in this connection he considers it necessary to carry out unification on the basis of a direct plebiscite, when voting is done by rank-and-file supporters of orange ideas. "It is they who must adopt the decision on unification, on electing from below through a plebiscite in each region separately a new leadership team," said Lutsenko. "If such a process goes forward, if this is accepted by the political forces to which I am proposing this today, then we will adopt a decision on the formation of such a leadership team, and I do not rule out that I may adopt a decision to head it," said Lutsenko. \n \nSpeaking about the parties that could enter the new orange coalition, Lutsenko noted that these could be various political forces, such as "Our Ukraine," the "Reforms and Order" party, "Pora," and part of the members of the Socialist Party. At the same time, according to Lutsenko, he does not see the Yuliya Tymoshenko Bloc in this coalition, since BYuT, according to him, currently positions itself as a self-sufficient political force. \n \n
