“The subject of beginning
talks on future withdrawal of Russian Black Sea fleet from the Ukrainian
territory should be put on the agenda of our bilateral relations. We should start
discussing this issue, if we want to be honest in our relations with each other,”
he said.
President also explained
that it is a very complicated matter as there are more than 100 vessels to be
withdrawn and substantial infrastructural changes to be made. “For us to make
the redeployment, foreseen in active agreement, we must have a lot of spare
time beforehand,” he explained.
In addition Yushchenko
reminded that Ukrainian constitution prohibits presence of foreign military
bases at the Ukrainian territory. “President is the guarantor of the
Constitution and I am obliged to bring up these things,” said Yushchenko.
