MP from the Party of Regions, First Deputy head of the Verkhovna Rada Oleksandr Lavrynovych in an interview to Interfax-Ukraine said that the Party of Regions faction will let conduct the parliamentary extraordinary meeting scheduled for Friday provided that the issue on raising of social standards is considered first at this session, press service of the Party of Regions reported.

“So far there are three concurred issues on the agenda to be discussed at the extraordinary meeting. Particularly, the position is common concerning the issues on making alterations to the law on elections of the President of Ukraine and on banks recapitalization.

We may agree to consider these points at the extraordinary session. But unless the issue of raising the social standards is put first on the agenda, there will be no session at all,” Lavrynovych mentioned.

“We will keep negotiating with our parliamentary colleagues about the possibility of holding this extraordinary session," he summed up.
