STATEMENT of the Kharkov regional council

«We won’t allow to destroy Ukraine!"

Each of us dreams to live in the prospering state, surely to look forward, choose the power and know that your welfare, rights and freedoms are reliably protected by the law.

Representing the region the voters of which repeatedly supported a course of the President of Ukraine Victor Yanukovych and on the last elections in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine once again confirmed an invariance of the political preferences, the Kharkov regional council considers a duty to condemn all attempts of violent overthrow of the constitutional power the legitimacy of which is recognized as the world community.

Irresponsible attempts of oppositional politicians to use declared as peace civil actions for achievement of narrow political goals, distorted them and turned into splash in violence and lawlessness. The main square of the country and the street of Kiev turned into a battlefield. But the marginal radical groups freely feel in such conditions, than they didn’t fail to use on January 19.

Leaders of opposition who incited every day people on the Kiev Maidan of Independence, eventually lost control over a situation when the so-called peace action turned back violence and blood. Perfectly realizing to what their impudent and precipitate actions led, before the raged aggressive crowd, they cynically try to avoid responsibility, accusing the power, ubiquitous provokers and will soon pass to mutual reproaches.

The course of events proves that the operating Ukrainian power remains in the country the only force which is capable to assume responsibility to provide the worthy future of Ukraine, to prevent split of the nation and to head a state way out from deep political crisis in which it is pushed together by political ambitions of oppositional adventurers from policy and street extremists, whose time expired last century.

The Kharkov regional council expresses the support to the President of Ukraine Victor Yanukovych and resolutely calls all political forces of the country, social movements and the organizations for political dialogue to stop state slipping in an abyss of civil war in which there would be no winners. It is never late to sit down at a negotiating table to find mutual understanding. All of us bear responsibility before future generations and have to provide strict observance of the Constitution and laws of Ukraine for the sake of future Cathedral Ukrainian State.

The Lugansk, Odessa, Kherson regional councils and also the autonomous republic Crimea supported the inhabitants of Kharkov.
