Yanukovych asking Azarov to explain slow implementation of reforms in Ukraine

Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has demanded an explanation from Prime Minister Mykola Azarov about the slow implementation of the reforms in the country.

"The general conclusion is that the intentions and declarations that were made were great. The level of their implementation, however, is very low. Why is this? I would like to hear from Prime Minister Mykola Yanovych Azarov, and, of course, those in charge of reform in all areas," Yanukovych said at a meeting on the economic reform in Kyiv on Thursday.

The president told the government that if they announce that they will do something, they should do it.
