press release
Saturday October 23, 2004 01:17 by International Secretary - Young Fine Gael - Young Fine Gael jjcarrol at tcd dot ie 51 Upper Mount Street, Dublin 2
The EPP endorse Young Fine Gael's call for free and fair elections in the Ukraine. Last weekend, Young Fine Gael (YFG) in co-operation with two youth political parties in the Ukraine, Young Rukh and the CDMU, expressed our concern with the manner in which the government of the Ukraine is carrying out the Presidential Election campaign due on October 31st and called for those elections to be carried out in a free and fair manner. There would appear to be widespread harassment of opposition election workers and abuse by the government of state facilities to support their candidate, Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych. Therefore, Young Fine Gael is pleased that the European People’s Party (EPP) has endorsed YFG’s call at their Political Bureau meeting on October 20th. The EPP is a coalition of centre, centre right and Christian Democratic parties across Europe, and is largest political grouping in the European Parliament. By endorsing and supporting YFG’s call, the EPP are adding to the pressure on the government to end their blatant favouritism and abuse of power in favouring Prime Minister Yanukovych’s campaign over that of the main opposition candidate, Viktor Yushchenko. |

Nice to know that someone in FG knows about Ukraine - aren't they great all the same...
Even if 'calling' for fair and free elections was to have an impact on the apparacik Kuchma, Liberal Democracy can only promise Ukraine more of the same hardships, but even more of the inequalities.
The IMF and World Bank (USA) call the shots when it comes to keeping or getting rid of social services and public ownership of resources and industries.
Russia still pulls the levers vis-a-vis power supplies to Ukraina.
The Ukrainian version of FG would probably opt for full membership of NATO. Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
p.s. hey eds., do FG not have their own sites for press releases without taking up space on this haven?
