We will remind, the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko has previously stated that early presidential and parliamentary elections in Ukraine will lead to disaster. “The country is at a very dangerous turn. A few months ago, early presidential and parliamentary elections were in fact a reality. I am deeply convinced – as a person, as a citizen – that an early election will lead to disaster in this country. If we get another domestic disturbance country can fly,” – said Lutsenko.
