Cherkasy –Natalia Korolevska's Ukraine- Forward! Party could be financed by chairman of the Party of Regions in the parliament, MP Oleksandr Yefremov, a member of the coordination council of the Chesno (Honestly) movement, Oleksiy Kliashtorny, said on August 3, 2012 being in Cherkasy at the presentation of the Chesnometr.

“Korolevska’s party is a private ‘pocket’ party of Yefremov, which
has been created using Kremlin money. This is my right to share these
suspicions with you that the party of Natalia Korolevska is promoted
using money received by her close friend Yefremov for the promotion of
the law on the principles of state language policy,” he said.

The press service of the Chesno movement told Interfax-Ukraine that
“the only platform for expressing the position of the movement on
certain issues is the official Web site of the movement.”

“The position towards the financing of Ukraine- Forward! Party
expressed by Kliashtorny is his personal position and does not have
relation to the official position of the Chesno movement,” the press
service said.
