The main theses of the program are continuation and completion of the political reform in Ukraine. “We consider it necessary to introduce system changes into the Constitution, having discussed them previously. Those constitutional changes, which were adopted in December 2004, leave much to be desire,” noted Zhdanov.
“We will propose abolition of imperative mandate of people’s deputies*, cancellation of functions of total inspection by Prosecutor’s Office, introduction of people’s veto by means of referendums, repeal of immunity of MPs, giving a right to President to dismiss Security Service chairman and Prosecutor General personally without parliament’s consent,” pointed out Zhdanov.

Speaking about coalition’s plans concerning improvement of people’s well-being, Zhdanov reported it was necessary to introduce pension reform to make minimal pension equal to bare subsistence. “Special attention should be paid to gutter-children.
