Former President Yushchenko to stand for parliament

Former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko (2005-2010) has said that he will not stand as an MP under a majority district, but is ready to participate in the elections on the list of the united opposition.

"My party and other political forces will undergo the consolidation process and act as a unified political platform. I'll act in the place and in the capacity that will be needed for this political movement. I will accept any answer to the question whether this will be the No. 1 on the list, the No. 101 or no number at all," he said, UKRINFORM  reported.
