Taylor congratulated Ukrainians on “good” elections

Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the USA to Ukraine William Taylor thinks that high attendance of Ukrainian citizens at polling stations on September 30 is a good sign of democracy. Tailor stated in his podcast which is placed on official web-site of the USA Embassy in Ukraine.

“It’ is important to note that 62% of Ukrainians came out to vote, which is a very high percentage in relative turns. I note that in the United States we often have less than 60% of people vote. So this is important for Ukraine. It's a good sign of democracy,” Taylor said.

He expressed his hope that “the parties will get together and come up with a coalition that can govern Ukraine over the next several years”. “There are issues that Ukraine must deal with right away, so we urge a quick formation of the government, and we congratulate the people of Ukraine for a very good election,” he noted.
