“As the current government refused again to conduct the elections in Kyiv, I find it necessary to choose the temporary council of deputies at the popular assembly, to choose the interim Mayor of Kyiv and Secretary to make decisions that are, first of all the, necessary for Kyiv citizens”, – commented the leader of the European Party of Ukraine, People`s Deputy of Ukraine and the member of the parliamentary faction “Batkivshchina” Mykola Katerynchuk on the refusal of Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to include the decision on elections in Kyiv in the agenda this week. – “I have already said it during the meeting outside the Kyiv City State Administration and I will continue to urge Kyiv citizens to expel this gang authorities out of the City Council areas and to establish a national power and to stop self-will in our capital”.
