Yatseniuk: People's Front initiates coalition and proposes premier as winner of elections

The People's Front Party, as the leader of parliamentary elections in 2014, initiates the creation of a coalition and proposes the candidacy of prime minister, party leader Arseniy Yatseniuk has said.

"In accordance with European practice, the party that got the first place in the elections must start the process of forming a coalition. I announced the coalition formation principles. If the coalition is formed on these principles, then it would be objective that the leader of the party heads the government. If the coalition is not formed on these principles, then it would be absolutely normal that the other party assumes the process of forming the coalition. And then there will be another prime minister in the country," he said at a press conference in Kyiv on Wednesday.

"We got the first place in the elections," Yatseniuk said, explaining the leadership of the People's Front in the formation of the coalition.

He also said that the prime minister has the right to submit the candidacies of ministers.
