“The only possible format of this political union is a coalition including the Bloc of Yulia Tymoshenko, Lytvyn’s Bloc, and Our Ukraine –People’s Self-Defense factions”, V.Yavorivskiy stressed.

He disclosed that Yulia Tymoshenko and Volodymyr Lytvyn agreed to enter the new coalition. So far, according to V.Yavorivskiy, they are waiting for the answer of OU-PSD.

“I call on President of Ukraine Victor Yushchenko to take under his “political patronage” the issue of OU-PSD’s joining the new coalition. It is a historical chance for Ukraine to solve the political crisis, because these political forces have no ideological differences”, V.Yavorivskiy said.
