Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko criticized lawmakers who hold multiple jobs and have not yet decided on their primary place of work. \nAccording to the press service of V. Yushchenko, he called holding multiple positions "incorrect behavior" and emphasized that he plans to again appeal to deputies of all factions and political forces so that they decide where they intend to work – in the executive or legislative branch – and "not let the matter go to court." The President stated this in an interview with the "1+1" channel dedicated to the results of the first hundred days of the new government's work. \n"If we are democrats, then first of all we must value and obey the law," emphasized the head of state. \n
