According to the Catholic Media Center, the Roman Catholic Church was represented at the ceremony by Metropolitan Mieczyslav Mokrzytski of Lviv.

Pope Benedict ХVІ sent Viktor Yanukovych a greeting address:

“At the moment when Your Honor assumes the post of the President of Ukraine I would like to pass my greetings to You and express a wish for success in the responsibility as the supreme guarantor of national unity, which has been vested on you and is important for the country’s life.

As I send You my warm wishes of successful service to the Ukrainian nation, which is very dear to me, I am calling God’s permanent support upon Your person for the sake of effective activity in the promotion of true civic and Christian values. I am pleased to add to these wishes the assurance of my prayer for the lavish Heavenly blessing to always come down on this country.”
