There are no grounds for state of emergency in Ukraine - President

"I am absolutely against bringing the country to a standstill or limiting its functioning", said President Yushchenko in his interview with Channel 5, according to the presidential press office.

Victor Yushchenko stressed that he would like the Government to apply adequate measures, rather than PR events. According to the President already in April the World Health Organization warned that the flu spread has started in the world.

The President noted that every country has taken measures to prevent epidemics. "To be prepared is the duty of every Government, every doctor", said Victor Yushchenko, adding that in his opinion, Ukraine failed to prepare to the outbreak of flu.
