We regret that we cannot be held responsible if the future turns out differently due to inaccuracies in the present
The Prime Minister has joined the US Commander-in-Chief in expressing "grave concern" at the outcome of the presidential elections in the Ukraine. The Commander-in-Chief expressed "grave concern" two days ago, while the Prime Minister expressed "grave concern" today. It is thought that both leaders are gravely concerned.
The elections have been overshadowed by violence from some of those who have been unable to afford the installation of a Diebechtel voting machine in their homes, and by supporters of the opposition candidate, who favoured a Russian brand of voting machine and is now claiming victory.
Ukraine's incumbent president, despite utilising drastic stabilising measures including suspension of constitutional rights and internment without trial, has favoured moderate economic policies. Under his rule, Ukraine has adopted an economic reconstruction programme which has concentrated almost 90% of the country's wealth into the hands of the most efficient fiftieth of the population.
His opponent, by contrast, has said he would seek closer ties with Russia, and has threatened to suspend constitutional rights and arbitrarily imprison opponents of his regime. When he declared victory two days ago amid accusations of voter intimidation and rigging of results, the Russian government was quick to recognise his claim.
However, in light of the grave concerns expressed by the Prime Minister and by Britain's ally, the United States, it is hoped that the Russians will moderate their stance and allow a genuinely democratic result to be declared.
"Obviously, what matters most in this matter is the will of the Ukrainian people," the Prime Minister said today.
