KYIV, Ukraine: The Head of the Presidential Administration of Ukraine Andriy Bohdan has said that the issue of Ukraine-Russia peace agreements might be put to a nationwide referendum.
“We are considering putting the issue of reaching a peaceful agreement with Russia to a nationwide referendum, so that not only lawmakers could vote and the president could decide – it is the people of Ukraine who could decide,” Andriy Bohdan said as per a report by the media outlet Eurasia Diary.
The 42-year-old lawyer Andriy Bohdan said that the presidential team may resort to the referendum option if the ‘ultimate decision’ is met by a mixed reception by Ukrainians. In his opinion, one should be ready to reach a compromise.
Andriy Bohdan stressed that the Ukraine’s new President Volodymyr Zelensky’s team would never be trading on Ukraine’s territories and people.
The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appointed Andriy Bohdan as the Head of the Presidential Administration on May 21.
