Verkhovna Rada Chairman Andriy Parubiy hopes that after the analysis by the Venice Commission, the language article of the law on education will not be changed, the press service of the parliament has reported.

"I very much hope that as a result of this discussion and a detailed study of the Law "On Education", we will come to the conclusion that this law corresponds to both the Constitution of Ukraine and international standards," he said on Tuesday during a meeting with the delegation of the Venice Commission of the Council of Europe headed by Thomas Markert.

Parubiy expressed hope that after the analysis of the law on education by the Venice Commission, in particular Article 7 thereof, it will remain in the form it was adopted by the Verkhovna Rada.

As reported, the Ukrainian law on education came into force on September 28.

Among other things, the law stipulates that the state language is a language of learning at educational institutions, but one or several subjects in two or more languages, namely, the state language, English and other European Union official languages can be taught in compliance with the educational program.

People, who belong to ethnic minorities, are guaranteed the right for learning in the native language along with the Ukrainian language in separate groups of municipal pre-school and primary school institutions.

On September 28, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry sent the education law for examination by the Venice Commission.

The Venice Commission's opinion on the Ukrainian education law can be expected in December.
