Statement of the MFA of Poland on the parliamentary elections in Ukraine
22.07.2019
Poland welcomes the peaceful conduct of the snap parliamentary elections in Ukraine of July 21 which in principle respected international electoral standards. At the same time we note preliminary conclusions of the OSCE/ODIHR mission.
We hope that the elections will result in creating stable majority in Verkhovna Rada and establishing new government which – together with President Volodymyr Zelensky – will accelerate the process of necessary reforms and continue the course towards strengthening Ukraine’s relations with the EU and NATO.
Poland continues to support Ukraine’s European and Euro-Atlantic aspirations and its modernisation efforts as well as the country’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity vis-a-vis Russia’s aggressive actions. We hope to develop constructive relations with the new authorities of Ukraine.
