Party of Regions to discuss priority actions on Sunday.
KIEV, February 14 (Itar-Tass) -- The Party of Regions faction in
Ukraine's parliament will meet on Sunday to discuss its priority actions
after the results of presidential elections have been officially announced
in Ukraine.
"This is going to be a meeting of the faction at which we will discuss
our priority actions," Alexander Yefremov, the faction's first deputy
leader, said.
He added that one of the first steps to be made by Yanukovich when he
takes office would be to order the government to implement a law on
raising social standards. "This will be done," Yefremov promised.
The Ukrainian Central Electoral Commission is planning to publish
official information on election results on February 16. According to
preliminary reports, Yanukovich is almost 3.5% ahead of Timoshenko.
However, Timoshenko has refused to concede her defeat and recognize
Yanukovich as the winner. She claims the elections were rigged. "I will
argue the election results in court," Timoshenko said in her televised
address to the people on Saturday night. She stressed she would refrain
from any street protests.
"I am not going to gather full squares and I won't allow public
civilian confrontation. Like never before Ukraine needs peace and
stability," Timoshenko went on to say.
"But I want to make it clear: Yanukovich is not our president. No
matter how the situation is going to unfold in future, he will never be a
legitimately elected president of Ukraine," Timoshenko stressed.
