President appeals against cabinet sacking

Victor Yushchenko appealed to  the Constitutional Court of Ukraine and urged it to consider whether last week’s resolution to dismiss the government was constitutional, presidential press office informed.

In his letter the President said that “the necessity to prove the legality of the above-mentioned resolution is caused by the need to establish whether the consideration of such important problems is in Verkhovna Rada's competence and to solve this problem legally in accordance with the Constitution of Ukraine.”
