\u00a0“In Ukraine the government often acts not for the people’s convenience though the people are the source of the power structure under statute law. Very few people attach significance to citizens’ initiatives: the information on them seldom appears in media, the powers ignore them, as a rule, they are irrelevant to most public organizations and political parties. We are to change this situation. Who is ready to work and fight for the benefit of ordinary people making our native Kharkiv better. We don’t wait for others to solve our problems. We show an initiative and take control of our life” \u2014Sergii Burlakov, the founder of the All-Ukrainian Union “Popular initiatives” tells.<\/p>\n
