Andriy Parubiy, MP from the OU-PSD told the IMC, answering the question, what changes into the budget the CPU will vote - for presidential or governmental ones.

Answering the IMC correspondent's question what political forces will support Yushchenko's draft bill, the MP said that "it is known that that draft bill, which the Party of Regions has submitted, is identical to the President's one, but it has minimal differences, in particular, Yushchenko proposes the reserve stock of UAH 200 million, but the PR proposes this sum to be UAH 500 million. They have also another demand - to form MPs commission in order to follow usage of this money. That's why we hope for consolidated voting of the whole hall, but not only the coalition".

Answering the qualifying question whether the BYuT supports the President's draft partially, Parubiy emphasized that "most likely, representatives of the BYuT will also vote for the President's changes, taking into account that the sum is twice as much as in the Cabinet's draft. It fully corresponds to scales of tragedy in the West Ukraine. That's why I'm sure that the Bloc of Yulia Tymoshenko will take this into account during the voting," he summarized.
