Presidential envoy in parliament Stepan Kubiv says that Ukrainian Prime
Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk is ready to resign provided three conditions are met
– they should propose a candidate for the post of prime minister, candidates
for new ministers and an action program.
"The
prime minister said he was ready to resign but his political force [the
People's Front Party] demands that they should see the following: firstly,
there should be a candidate [for prime minister], secondly, a [new government's
action] program, thirdly, the composition [of the new government]," Kubiv
said after a meeting of party leaders and party groups with President Petro
Poroshenko on Monday evening.
"There
was a heated debate. Every political force announced its position. Then the
president said that the parliament and democratic [parliamentary] factions
should take responsibility for forming a new, European-oriented [parliamentary
majority] coalition on the basis of the democratic forces," he added.
MP Oleh
Lyashko, the leader of the Radical Party, announced after the meeting with the
president that Yatsenyuk had put forth the conditions under which he
was ready to step down, but said that "no
reshuffle issues, including names of candidates for prime minister were
discussed."
