“The Constitution isn’t written for a person or a situation. The Constitution is written for the country, the nation and the future,” the Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk stressed during the Third inclusive National Unity Roundtable on Wednesday, May 21, in Mykolayiv.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk welcomed endeavors of the Parliament of Ukraine directed to preparation of the text of the Constitution, “which contains various positions”, approval and sending to the Venice Commission: “After we receive the response from the Venice Commission, we should continue working in the similar format we are working now, - public dialog”.

“The process of approval of the new Constitution must be public. If anyone of the presidents, prime ministers, VR heads or judges considers that the Constitution will be signed to satisfy him, I will remind an example of the previous president – it ended badly,” he emphasized.

Moreover, the Head of Government highlighted significance of the presidential elections due on May 25: “We must hold the elections. Ukraine must receive legitimate President”.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk welcomed the fact that in the approved by the Parliament on May 20 Memorandum of understanding and peace “all the political forces urged to hold the presidential elections in order to receive legitimately elected Head of State”.
