Government expects that 2009 Budget and Government's Action Program to be passed before New Year

Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Tymoshenko hopes that new Coalition will pass the 2009 Budget and the Government’s Action Program aimed at overcoming the crisis events before New Year.

“Such goal is set to the Government and new Coalition by the end of the year,” Yulia Tymoshenko noted.

She also added that today she held a meeting with Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Volodymyr Lytvyn in the course of which understanding concerning the necessity to overcome all negative phenomena in the country had been achieved.

Yulia Tymoshenko also expressed satisfaction that new Coalition is operating and gives a result to the country. “New coalition exists de jure and de facto, operates and the most important – gives a result to the country”. Yulia Tymoshenko said that last week the Verkhovna Rada had shown efficient work passing a number of antirecessionary decisions. “The Verkhovna Rada started its work, stable and reliable and I hope that no political intrigues can ruin this work,” the Prime Minister noted.

At the same time Yulia Tymoshenko leveled criticism at statements of some politicians who try to discredit the decision on the creation of a new Coalition. According to her, “these statements are of enemies of Ukraine, persons who are working against the interests of Ukraine, persons who are struggling for the power at any cost instead of joining the work for Ukraine, for its stabilization, for its rescue at the financial-economic crisis,” the Prime Minister said.
