Ukraine lacks unity coalition – Poroshenko

Ukrainian politician Petro Poroshenko claims the nation currently lacks a coalition of unity. He asserts that unity, combined with its military, not only inspired hope for victory but also safeguarded Ukraine and continues to do so today. Poroshenko highlighted this during a national roundtable discussion titled "Unity Around the Flag" as part of the Kyiv Security Forum.

He emphasized that unity must be based on support for Ukraine's Armed Forces and national interests, not as a pretext for power abuse. Poroshenko questioned the presence of anyone in the room or Ukraine who opposes unity, questioning the purpose of gathering if everyone supports it. He maintained that the flag should symbolize Ukraine, not a cover-up for various issues.

In Poroshenko's view, unity's foundation should transcend party lines and be rooted in something greater, such as Ukraine's Armed Forces, people's lives and safety, European integration, and cultural elements like the cherry orchard and language. He emphasized that answers to all questions exist.
