Answering journalists' questions about his impression of today’s session
of the UN General Assembly, President Viktor Yanukovych said: "First of
all, we must join the Millennium Declaration. This is our duty. The
criteria, which we are to achieve by participating in this program, must
be accepted by the authorities and society”.
The President also stressed that "we should not be fighting each other”. "We have more important things to fight for: for a better life, for human rights, for environmental safety, against poverty and so on. And it is very good that global movement, promoting such work in different regions of the world, has appeared. Ukraine will actively participate in it," Viktor Yanukovych said.
When asked about the attitude of the international community towards Ukrainian reforms in the context of the Millennium Declaration, President said: "We felt that the attitude towards Ukraine in the world has changed significantly. It becomes clearer, more concrete”. According to Viktor Yanukovych, our partners welcome the stability in our state, which makes it possible to achieve things that have been planned.
