This morning, residents of Kivertsi in the Volyn region blocked the entrance doors to the district state administration, preventing its head, Volodymyr Kharchuk, from taking his workplace. The town's residents thus expressed their protest against the authorities' actions regarding the issuance of absentee ballots to the leadership. Residents of the district center demand that the heads of the regional and district state administrations take urgent measures to stop falsifications with absentee certificates. "If this dirty falsification continues, then we, the honest voters of the district, will march on foot to the Volyn Regional State Administration and demand your resignation. We will all go out onto the railway and stop train traffic in the city of Kivertsi and transport on the Lutsk-Kyiv highway," the statement says. People's Deputy of Ukraine Volodymyr Bondar, speaking before the participants of the rally, stated that the head of the district state administration must listen to the advice of the people and take the side of the law. "Be a human being, have respect for yourself and your people. Enough of enduring the authorities' mockery of yourselves. One cannot fight against one's own people," said the head of Viktor Yushchenko's election campaign headquarters in the Volyn region. Addressing the head of the Kivertsi District State Administration, Volodymyr Bondar also emphasized: "You, as the head of the district, are responsible for these people. Only by respecting the Laws of Ukraine will you earn authority among these people. Govern in such a way that you can look your fellow citizens in the eye with peace of mind." The head of Viktor Yushchenko's Volyn headquarters is convinced: where the people have awakened, no falsifications will succeed. "People have understood that they are the source of power, they have found mechanisms of influence on this power. The ultimatum declared by Ukrainian citizens compels today's authorities to understand the power of the people." Volodymyr Bondar asserts that the elections contributed to the birth of a nation whose right to vote, the right to be a citizen, cannot be taken away. "Our people have become a European nation," said the People's Deputy.
Residents of the district center of Kivertsi in Volyn Oblast issued an ultimatum to the authorities and stated that they would not allow their choice to be trampled on.
