Tymoshenko will not turn Russian fleet out Crimea

Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Tymoshenko states that she will not initiate the reconsideration of agreement on stay of the Black Sea fleet of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine. The Prime Minister of Ukraine stated in an interview with the Russian newspaper “Arguments of a week”.

In particular, answering the question “whether the Black Sea fleet will stay in Sevastopil till 2012, as it was agreed? Or the Ukrainian side has a desire to “shift” it somewhere?”, Tymoshenko said: “Despite any relations and agreements between partners, and they could be either good or not, it is a rule in the world to follow them. Otherwise, we will submerge into the chaos. I, as the Prime Minister of Ukraine and a responsible person, will never initiate in one-sided way the reconsideration of earlier signed agreements, including the case on the Black Sea fleet”.
