Necessary to remove dualism of power by changing Constitution – Groysman

Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman has said that it is necessary to remove the dualism of the government by introducing amendments to the Constitution.

"We need a systemic amendment of the Constitution and we need to remove the dualism of power. There must be a clear responsibility what the government in the country is responsible for. It is clear what the president and the parliament are responsible for. Everything should be balanced and settled. In the countries where this is settled, the system flawlessly works, where there is a dualism, there are always conflicts, regardless of the person," he said on ICTV channel on Monday.

The premier said that the power distribution scheme should work independently of individuals who hold certain positions.

"I think that the president will decide when he is going to run for a second term. In fact, I think, that for every normal person the second term or the first term is not an end in itself, it is an instrument. When he decides, he will apply to the Ukrainian people and say what he wants to do in the next five years and ask people for their trust. I always support our president, like you," Groysman said.
