RSS News headlinesKyiv, May 15 (Interfax-Ukraine) – If it had been a crime to block the presidential address to the Verkhovna Rada, certain deputies wouldn't have acted as they did, Deputy Head of the Presidential Secretariat Ihor Pukshyn said at a briefing on Thursday.
"If there were responsibility [criminal responsibility], I doubt that deputies would block the rostrum," he said.
Making a presidential address to the Verkhovna Rada is one of the official duties of the president, he said.
