Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada Speaker, Volodymyr Groysman, said in Brussels, that the Ukrainian parliament still has many opportunities to make the country stronger and therefore, there is no need to hold the new elections now.

“As for the early election, I believe that the overwhelming majority of this audience can reiterate “No” [to an early parliamentary election]. We have so much ahead, we have a lot of opportunities that we will use in order to make Ukraine stronger,” Groysman said, when speaking at the high-level conference of the European Parliament and the Verkhovna Rada in Brussels on Feb. 29.
