Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych noted a need to accelerate the adoption of the law "On higher education," he said during a meeting with the student leaders, the press service of the head of state reported.
The President recalled that the Cabinet has almost finished the consideration of this bill, and then the document will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada.
In this context, the President invited the students to work on this bill. "If you wish, I can offer the Cabinet and the Prime Minister to bring you this project, and you will be able to take part in the Cabinet meeting. It would be a completely normal practice, if we involve community organizations in preparation of bills," he said.
Yanukovych said that this bill was prepared with the participation of rectors of higher educational institutions due to the excessive politicization of the issue.
