Tymoshenko: Batkivschyna will continue blocking Rada until authorities discuss tariffs
The Batkivschyna parliamentary faction will continue to block the Verkhovna Rada presidium until the authorities hold talks, the press service of the political force has said.
"Democratic opposition factions continue to block the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine today. The purpose of blocking is one: to force the government, the president of Ukraine, their majority in parliament to hold negotiations and immediately analyze the catastrophic situation with tariffs for gas, heat, cold and hot water, electricity," Leader of the Batkivschyna Party Yulia Tymoshenko told reporters.
According to her, "it is unacceptable for the parliament now to go on vacation, the deputies to disperse throughout the world, and people to leave with those unsustainable tariffs, which were doubled from July 1."
