Ukraine cannot avoid referendum to decide on accession to EU or Customs Union, says Yanukovych » Interfax News Wire :: Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Central Asia:
"Kyiv, August 30 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has said that a national referendum is to be conducted if a decision to join the European Union (EU) or the Customs Union is made.
“Any decisions we make have to be far-sighted. Any decisions, from simple to serious and strategic, with which we are now concerned, can show what the choice of the Ukrainian nation is, via a referendum,” Yanukovych said in an interview with Ukrainian television channels broadcasted on the 1+1 TV channel on Friday.
“We don’t know when the referendum will be held. When the decision to join the European Union or the Customs Union is made, we cannot do without a referendum.”
As reported, Yanukovych gave an interview to Savik Shuster (Shuster Live, Inter TV Channel), Oleksandr Tkachenko (1+1 TV channel), Andriy Kulikov (IСTV) and Larysa Hubina (the Fifth Channel) on Thursday."
