PORA-PRP has begun public discussion of the text of an agreement on creating a coalition between the political forces that participated in the Orange Revolution, to sign the agreement.

This was reported on Tuesday by the bloc's press service.

This agreement is proposed to be signed by the "PORA-PRP" bloc, the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc, the "Our Ukraine" Bloc, and the Socialist Party.

"We announce the creation of a future political coalition in the Verkhovna Rada after the 2006 elections and swear to the Ukrainian people that this coalition will be created on fundamentally new principles of openness, transparency, and honesty," the proposed agreement says. The signatories are also proposed to refrain from putting forward "additional conditions" and to declare as their highest goal "the people's aspiration for freedom and a dignified life."

"We undertake to strictly adhere to these principles and to oblige all other possible participants of this agreement to do so, whatever place or position they may occupy in Ukrainian politics," the text of the agreement proposed for discussion states. The signatories are also proposed to publicly swear "in no form, publicly or secretly, to enter into separate political negotiations and not to enter into alliances with communists, Kuchmists, criminal politicians, and other opponents of Ukrainian independence and democracy, whatever they may call themselves today."

"We undertake to tell the people of Ukraine about all circumstances and stages of the creation of this coalition, hiding nothing that could harm them in continuing the struggle for freedom and democracy, for human and civil rights," the text of the agreement says.

The Tymoshenko Bloc has already declared its support for this agreement.

As is known, during the creation of the coalition at the presidential elections, Tymoshenko and Yushchenko signed an agreement that in the event of victory, she would receive the post of prime minister.

At the same time, Tymoshenko is skeptical about signing the memorandum on fair elections proposed by President Yushchenko.

"This memorandum is the most banal PR," Tymoshenko said in Dnipropetrovsk, according to the BYuT press service.

"If someone wants fair elections, they must make them happen, not declare them - it simply requires the desire," she said.
