The head of the Volyn regional organization of the "Reforms and Order" party, Oleksandr Martyniuk, says he is unpleasantly surprised by talk of a possible resignation of Viktor Pynzenyk from the post of head of the PRP. He claims that at a meeting with the leaders of the party's regional branches, Viktor Mykhailovych clearly argued his position regarding remaining in the Yekhanurov Government. "His position as a patriot-professional does not contradict and cannot contradict the party's position," Oleksandr Martyniuk is convinced, "deeds will likewise be an argument of the election campaign, and not only public adherence to the currently popular leader." Regarding the PRP congress planned for October 8, O. Martyniuk claims that only one agenda item was discussed beforehand – the final formalization of the party's name. According to the leader of the Volyn "reformers," not only Tomenko, Filenko or Soboliev, who were named by colleagues from other regions, are capable of leading the party; the party's organizational potential is much stronger – Ihor Hryniv, Volodymyr Bondarenko, Taras Stetskiv or Ihor Ostash could also successfully lead the PRP. But, as Oleksandr Martyniuk believes, the team principle that was characteristic of the party since its founding will be decisive today as well. Therefore, none of the listed politicians will lay claim to the post of party head until the next term stipulated by the party's statute. "Our party," says O. Martyniuk, "has a unique chance – to prove that 'parallel' lines in Ukrainian politics do intersect, and that the national-democratic forces can and must go into the next parliamentary elections together, regardless of the format, configuration or situational differences in the leaders' views."
