Kyiv, June 15 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Leader of Batkivschyna Party Yulia Tymoshenko, who is in prison now, welcomes the unification of the Batkivschyna Party, Front Zmin Party, the Reform and Order Party and a part of the People's Movement of Ukraine (Narodny Rukh Ukrainy, NRU), reads an address of Tymoshenko to members of the united congress of Batkivschyna Party, a copy of which has been sent to Interfax-Ukraine.

“Be sure that our congress is not the unification before the execution, but this is the formation of the united army before the decisive triumphal attack against Yanukovych’s authoritarian clan,” reads the address.

“I know that there are skeptics in our parties, who believe that our unification is a bad idea, who are still thinking of who wins from the unification and who lost… I want to ask skeptics to throw away all doubts as our party is to beat the strong and dangerous enemy in 2015 – the authoritarian corrupted gang,” reads the address.

Tymoshenko forecasts that in 2015, “the ruling party will organize a fight without any rules and moral, it will be not a fight, but a tough political slaughter.”

“We are to unite Batkivschyna Party, Front Zmin Party, Reform and Order Party and a part of People’s Movement of Ukraine to be stronger and win,” she said.

Tymoshenko called to continue the strengthening of the party after the congress and leave doors open for all opposition democratic forces.
