The Ukrainian World Congress issued the following media release on March 6.
With the dismissal of the government of Ukraine and the removal of the prosecutor general by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy just half a year after taking office, the Ukrainian World Congress calls upon newly appointed Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and his new government to maintain a pro-reform Euro-Atlantic trajectory.
UWC maintains that the interests of Ukraine and its people remain paramount. Trust in government, independence of the judicial system and sanctity of democratic institutions are key to Ukraine’s success. Ukraine risks losing the support of international allies if its political leadership fails to uphold the rule of law, engages in politically motivated justice or fails to fully implement necessary democratic and economic reforms.
