In an interview with a Polish newspaper Rzeczpospolita President Viktor Yuschenko has highlighted Russia's stronger interference with the political situation in Ukraine. "Today Russia interferes with the political situation in Ukraine in a more outright and cynical manner then ever. Starting from critical letters and finishing with clearing-ups and explanations of who should or should not be supported in the Ukrainian elections," the Ukrainian president complained.
The head of state believes this to humiliate the Ukrainian people. At the same time Yuschenko emphasised, Russia's position cannot have much influence on the progress and outcome of the presidential ballot. As Ukrainian News earlier reported, Yuschenko is September said he anticipated Russia's attempts to meddle in the process of election of the president of Ukraine. Ukraine is electing its president on January 17, 2010.
