Poroshenko: pro-European parties will be presented in Donetsk, Luhansk region councils for the first time
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has stressed the importance of voting in the part of Donbas controlled by Ukrainian authorities and said that for the first time pro-European parties will be represented in the local authorities of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
"It is very important that the vote took place in the part of Donbas controlled by Ukrainian authorities. For the first time Donetsk and Luhansk regions chose their local authorities at quite competitive elections, which have never been held in those parts of the region before. For the first time the monopoly of certain political forces, which has been forming for several years, has been broken there. For the first time pro-European parties will be represented in the councils of Donetsk and Luhansk regions. They are all the more obliged to coordinate efforts to control the actions of the local majority," Poroshenko said.
