“This is one of the options for the development of events,” he said in response to a question from journalists about the possibility of introducing a state of emergency.
However, Parubiy admitted, “the state of emergency does not provide an opportunity to use the army, it does not provide additional forces.” To do this, martial law must be introduced in the country, the secretary explained.
