The Communist Party of Ukraine has said that it is obvious that the Party of Regions provides assistance, including financial one, to the nationalist Svoboda all-Ukrainian Union.
"The media have long said that the Party of Regions is financing the Svoboda. I believe, that this is the case, taking into account the indifferent reaction of the Party of Regions to inadequate actions of Svoboda members, which sometime border on terrorism," the press service of the Communist Party quoted the first secretary of Luhansk regional committee of the party, MP Spiridon Kilinkarov.
According to him, should the Svoboda Union pose any threat to the Party of Regions, the latter would have found the arguments to put an end to "neo-fascist methods" of this party.
"It turns out that the government is promoting the Svoboda as a rival to the opposition in the elections," Kilinkarov said.
