"Financial support of social obligations of the state next year will be not lower than this year", Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Volodymyr Lytvyn stated on Friday, asked by the journalists of Rada television channel. According to the Chairman, such payments will not be effected by the Government due to the actual capacities of the state budget, but they will not be lower than this year.
V. Lytvyn stated that the Verkhovna Rada and the Cabinet of Ministers should pass a coordinated public decision not to adopt populist laws any more; instead, it is necessary to support implementation of the adopted documents. "Until the adopted social laws are being implemented, we shall not adopt new ones. It will prevent contests before elections under the slogan: "Who is going to promise more", The Head of the Parliament said.
According to V. Lytvyn, people should be aware of the fact "that today there are no guilty and no innocent." "All authority representatives are guilty - both the acting and the former ones. Termination of social laws started in 2000, and reached its highest in the end of 2007, when a new budget was adopted," he stated.
"I remind deputies who declare that the present power is criminal that we all are responsible. We should think now how to fulfill social obligations", V. Lytvyn declared.
