Reboot of the
Government today is a responsibility of the Parliament and the coalition, as
stated by President Petro Poroshenko at the meeting with the representatives of
the Aspen Institute.
The Head of
State noted that the coalition played a key role in that issue and "should
determine candidates for the ministerial posts, define a program of reforms to
be implemented and clear out the position of factions within the
coalition".
"The only
thing I would like to emphasize is that I cannot allow early parliamentary
elections to date. Despite their declarations, certain political leaders are
trying to incite early elections. We have neither time nor necessity for that.
We will not have a better Parliament and must learn to cooperate with this
one," Petro Poroshenko said.
The President
recalled the words of former Minister of Foreign Affairs Hennadiy Udovenko that
the key values for a politician should be honesty, professionalism and
patriotism. "Unfortunately, some politicians add their ambitions and even
insults to that. A true leader focuses primarily on the state interests,"
the Head of State noted.
According to
the President, first of all we need responsible, patriotic, professional and
honest leaders today.
The Head of
State added that the implementation of reforms was the most important stage
that must be formed by a team of responsible individuals who are able to
implement the draft laws.
The meeting
was attended by graduates of the Aspen Institute Deputy Prime Minister of
Ukraine Hennadiy Zubko, Minister of Finance Natalie Jaresko, Director of the
Aspen Institute Elliot Gerson, Yevhen Utkin, Serhiy Koshman, Anatoliy
Klepatskyi and Serhiy Rohol.
