One detail: Moroz's behavior shows that he is neither past nor future, he still is in power as Speaker of Parliament and prospects for past and future perspectives depend on him.
He made himself perfectly clear about the recent elections by saying that society does not support the policy being carried out by the state. According to him, he would not say that Leftist forces won the parliamentary elections, but people did confirm their sympathy for the Left. He called the elections a victory of democratic forces and thus of democracy. "I do not think that the chances are high that elections will be announced invalid." he said. However, according to him, the Central Election Committee has the right to do so in all election districts, where the grossest violations were recorded.
Will the Pustovoitenko cabinet have to resign in light of the election results? Moroz believes that this is primarily a moral question the government itself will have to face. Being able to influence the situation, conduct illegal methods of agitation, monopolizing the mass media, and relying on presidential support, the executive "lost everything there was to lose." But Moroz said that he did not want to be the initiator of the government's fall. It seems clear that Moroz is still counting noses and does not to risk alienating various pro-presidential forces which may enter Verkhovna Rada. "To be or not to be" for the Pustovoitenko government will be connected with whether Speaker Moroz is likely to be or not to be.
