Ukraine’s future lies in federalization, VP Viktor Tykhonov believes

At the same time he said the Ukrainian society is not mature enough to embrace this strategy.

All countries that accepted federalization are now economically and politically thriving states, the official argued.

Recall, that quite recently the Party of Regions ideologists claimed that Ukraine can be saved only by federalization. There is no alternative to federalization, Vadym Kolesnychenko said.

In the wake of such declaration, Pres Yanukovych spoke up against the federalization. “Ukraine is a unitary state. Period. Unitary and democratic. This status gives more rights to regions,” the incumbent said.
