Tymoshenko staged a rally under Poroshenko’s windows for joining NATO (VIDEO)
Kyiv, October 23 (Navigator, Vladimir Mikhailov) – Representatives of “Fatherland” led by Yulia Tymoshenko brought more than 3 million signatures of Ukrainians to the administration of Petro Poroshenko for holding a referendum on Ukraine’s accession to NATO.
Signatures in bundles were laid out before entering the Administration in the form of the inscription “NATO is the world.” Yulia Tymoshenko told the assembled journalists that she intended to demand a referendum be held simultaneously with the elections.

“At the time when Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons, a strategic mistake was made and Ukraine did not achieve membership in the collective security system. Today, the Ukrainian people are paying a very high price for this mistake - with the lives and health of their citizens, with the weakening and destabilization of the country. So now is the time to fix this error immediately. Our team collected 3 million 3931 thousand signatures of Ukrainians in order to hold a referendum on joining NATO simultaneously with the parliamentary elections. This is provided for by the Constitution of Ukraine, and now the word is up to the president. According to the Constitution, he can issue a decree to immediately hold a referendum. Now the question of NATO membership does not divide Ukrainians. Our latest poll shows that 64% of Ukrainians are ready to vote for joining NATO in the referendum. This means that Ukraine understands that there is no other way to return peace and protect it.
I have all the arguments to convince the president to immediately begin the process of holding an all-Ukrainian referendum on joining NATO. I believe that if we waste time again and do not start moving towards NATO now, another strategic mistake will be made, which in the future will bring threats to the preservation of peace, sovereignty and the existence of Ukraine,” said Yulia Tymoshenko.
Then, in front of journalists, Yulia Vladimirovna vividly listened to the complaints of a woman who had been picketing the presidential administration for a long time, demanding the return of the apartment taken by the scammers.
The woman complained to Tymoshenko that Poroshenko’s motorcade rushes past every time, and no one wants to delve into the essence of her troubles. “Poroshenko was a friend only when he had to become president,” said the pensioner, and Tymoshenko shook her head knowingly. “Only you I believe!” – the woman was happy.
Elections to the Verkhovna Rada will take place in Ukraine next Sunday.
