Deputy Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Olena Kondratyuk welcomed the joint successes and positive results of the Ukrainian Parliament's cooperation with international partners in terms of openness of the Verkhovna Rada and strengthening its institutional capacity. She said this during the final event of the USAID Program "RADA: Responsible Accountable Democratic Assembly".
"We are all in love with Parliamentarism and are responsible for the role of the Parliament in society. I would like the role of the Parliament to be loud and active. And we, in fact, still have a lot of work to do," Olena Kondratiuk stressed.
The next stage of such fruitful cooperation should be the implementation of the "Open Rada" project, which is taken care of by the Deputy Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada.
According to her, it is symbolic that the summing up of the RADA Program took place on the eve of the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Constitution of Ukraine.
"After all, Ukraine is a parliamentary-presidential republic, and this must be constantly emphasized. As well as on the rights, responsibilities and constitutional capabilities of citizens. Therefore, I sincerely welcome all the joint successes in increasing the institutional capacity and openness of the Verkhovna Rada that have taken place in our country," the Vice Speaker said.
Olena Kondratiuk thanked the USAID staff and management, the RADA program and the Eastern Europe Foundation for their cooperation and assistance. In particular, USAID Deputy Mission Director Susan Kutorto, and Viktor Lyakh, Head of the Foundation, as well as the Secretariat of the Verkhovna Rada for active involvement in project Implementation.
During the event, representatives of the RADA Program and the Eastern Europe Foundation also presented Olena Kondratiuk with an award for significant contribution to the development of the responsible, accountable and democratic Parliament of Ukraine.
