Servant of People faction calls for creation of coalition of national stability, - Poturaiev
The Servant of the People political party faction has announced its political position regarding the anti-corruption investigation by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO) into the activities of a criminal group led by Timur Mindich.
This was reported by Censor.NET with a link to the head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Humanitarian and Information Policy, Mykyta Poturaiev.
People's deputies emphasized the need for full support of anti-corruption agencies and the application of tough sanctions to all those involved in the case. "No one should be above the law," the statement said.
Coalition for National Resilience
The faction called for negotiations between all pro-Ukrainian forces in the Verkhovna Rada to create a coalition of national stability that would restore the trust of citizens and international partners in the state.
Government of national stability
After forming a coalition, MPs propose to create a government of national stability without party quotas, backroom deals, and "their own people." The government should consist of specialists with impeccable reputations who will work to ensure defense capability, economic and energy stability, and an uncompromising fight against corruption.
The faction also emphasized the need to maintain the constitutional balance of power and increase the transparency of the presidential institution. "Disunity leads to defeat. Unity, purification, and justice lead to victory," the deputies concluded.
