The recently elected president of Ukraine is sending out an important signal by choosing Brussels as the destination for his first foreign visit. Ukraine is a state with European aspirations and the fact that President Yanukovich is coming to the EU’s capital to meet with the leading members of the Commission highlights that Kiev is looking towards the West.
The new Ukrainian president is faced with major challenges at a time when the International Monetary Fund has suspended the stand-by agreement signed with Kiev, due to numerous unfulfilled or breached commitments. It is important that President Viktor Yanukovich does not forget the promises he made on the day he assumed his mandate. Ukraine needs, as the new leader in Kiev pointed out, internal stability, as well as to combat corruption and consolidate the economy on healthy foundations. Ukraine needs to regain the confidence of the business sector and international community to be able to successfully overcome the economic recession, exacerbated by an unstable political climate.
The conclusion of the electoral campaign and President Yanukovich’s assuming office must signal an end to populist practices such as artificially increasing the population’s income on an economically unsustainable basis. President Yanukovich’s inaugural speech gives hope to the international community that things can return to normal in Ukraine. It remains in the period that now follows for these words to be demonstrated by actions as well."@en1
