The results of the first round of voting in the presidential elections in Ukraine have been summed up.
The results announced by the Central Election Commission of the first round show a definite alignment of political forces and people’s opinions, and I greatly respect their choice.
I thank everyone who came to the polls and voted. Having analyzed the programs of all the presidential candidates that ran in the first round, having carefully studied the proposed reforms and consequences, and having compared their campaign programs with mine, I want to take this opportunity to officially offer Serhiy Tihipko the post of Prime Minister of Ukraine after my victory in the presidential elections.

I believe that his strategic program for
stabilizing the economy and reforming Ukraine
corresponds, for the most part, with my economic
program.
I clearly know that votes for Serhiy Tihipko came from people who want change just as much as I do. That’s why my proposal is based on the understanding that the country needs a team that the people can trust and believe in – a team that is capable of making serious changes in the country.
In appealing to Serhiy Tihipko with the offer to head the government, I expect that he will give a clear answer so that people can decide who to vote for in the second round.
