According to Bezpalko, a statement can only reflect the beliefs of Vereshchuk herself.
According to the expert, in order for Ukraine to follow its own path, the country must have a “clear ideology that is aimed at following its own path”, however, the transition to European legislation in the field of energy and the split of the Orthodox Church “testifies to directly opposite processes” .
Earlier, Verkhovna Rada deputy Irina Vereshchuk said that Ukraine is more important for the European Union than Brussels for Kiev.
According to her, Kiev should “learn how to decentralize them, the judiciary, and law enforcement reform,” but there’s no point in “copying everything in a row”. The deputy stressed that Ukraine has "its own values that must be protected."
