You're reading: Yefremov: Regions Party not to allow Azarov to be continually called to report to parliament

The Regions Party faction considers it unacceptable to invite Prime Minister Mykola Azarov to the Verkhovna Rada only because the opposition wishes it.

“When he [Arseniy Yatseniuk] comes to the parliament’s rostrum and
says things that are clearly untrue and then demands that a senior
official be invited to parliament, it looks like some kind of childish
game,” the leader of the Regions Party faction in parliament, Oleksandr
Yefremov, said at a briefing in parliament on Thursday, Sept. 6.

“But we are not planning to disturb [Azarov] on every such occasion,
and invite him to parliament just because Yatseniuk said so,” Yefremov
said.

Yatseniuk earlier read out a statement by the opposition from the
parliamentary rostrum, demanding that Azarov deliver a report in
parliament on the situation on the financial market and in connection
with the upcoming parliamentary elections.
