President: Government fulfills all its obligations

President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych states that the government has fulfilled all its obligations to settle the situation in Ukraine. According to press service of the Head of State, it is said in the President's address to Ukrainian citizens.

“I address you with a feeling of great anxiety and concern for the lives and health of many people involved in the conflict by irresponsible politicians. Unfortunately, this confrontation has not gone without casualties. This night Ukraine has suffered another loss – captain of the Internal Troops Dmytro Vasyliovych Dunets died in the course of the service on maintaining public order in Kyiv. These days, Ukraine bade farewell to the young people died in this confrontation. We also know that people have suffered from defatigation, cold and clashes. Every such accident leaves a deep and painful sore in our hearts. Each of us asks: for what do people suffer? Why do politicians not call for peace and mutual understanding but kindle the emotions with their reckless and irresponsible statements thinking rather about their ratings than about the life and health of people?” Yanukovych notes.

According to him, the government has fulfilled all its obligations under these agreements including the adoption of the Law on Amnesty that guarantees freedom and liberation of persons arrested during the conflict.

President urges people not to stand on a frost for the sake of political ambitions of several leaders. “I think that it is wrong. We must understand that there is no future for the state and people if political interests of certain groups are set higher than the existence of Ukraine itself,” Yanukovych says.

 “I once again address people, ordinary citizens, my compatriots: let's do everything for peace and normal life in the country. For my part, I will consider the needs and aspirations of people with the greatest understanding and commitment taking into account the mistakes that any government can make for only the one who does nothing makes no mistakes. I believe that together we will manage to bring the life of Ukraine and all its citizens back to the peaceful track,” Head of State summed up.
