Today, March 15, the candidate for the position of Lutsk city mayor from the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc, Volodymyr Lytvyniuk, stated: "I gave my word at the inter-party conference of the BYuT, I gave my word to the voters and journalists that I will go to the end. And I will keep it. Only the voter can give it or take it away. Our position is clear and understandable to the people of Lutsk. We will not negotiate with the managers of the election process. I will negotiate with the community." Thus the question of the "triplicity" of candidates from "Batkivshchyna" has been removed." This was reported by the own correspondent of the Western Information Corporation.   Commenting on the deregistration of one of the candidates and the lawsuit against another, Volodymyr Lytvyniuk noted that "it is not we who are deregistering them, but the law. One must be guided not by expediency, but by law. If a candidate already violates legislation during the election campaign, then it is unlikely he would have adhered to it if he had been elected to the position of city mayor.   The people of Lutsk in 2006 are no longer the same as they were in 2000 or 2001. They are intelligent, free and respect the law. And in the near future they will witness some interesting events."   During the press conference, a declaration of intentions for honest and transparent elections, signed by the candidates for the position of Lutsk city mayor Volodymyr Lytvyniuk and Oleh Boiko, was also made public. Other candidates for mayor and political parties are to join it in two or three days. To the question "Why can't the names of all signatories be made public right now?", Volodymyr Lytvyniuk answered that "firstly, these people, besides a signature, have something to say and they will do so. Secondly, I once already let slip that my deputy in the position of Lutsk city mayor would be Oleksandr Viktorov, which led to certain negative consequences."
