Την ίδια ώρα εκπρόσωποι της αντιπολίτευσης αναφέρουν ότι δυνάμεις της αστυνομίας εισέβαλαν στα γραφεία της στο Κίεβο.
Σε μια πρώτη αντίδραση, σύμφωνα με το πρακτορείο UNIAN, οι διαδηλωτές κατευθύνονται στο κτίριο της ουκρανικής βουλής.
Οι επικεφαλής της αντιπολίτευσης έχουν ζητήσει από τους διαδηλωτές να «υπερασπιστούν» την πλατεία Ανεξαρτησίας, που αποτελεί το επίκεντρο των διαδηλώσεων κατά της κυβέρνησης για την απόφαση της να μην προχωρήσει στην υπογραφή της συμφωνίας με την ΕΕ.
Όπως μεταδίδει το Interfax επικαλούμενο αστυνομικές πηγές στους διαδηλωτές επιδόθηκε δικαστική εντολή η οποία απαγορεύει τον αποκλεισμό κυβερνητικών κτιρίων στο Κίεβο.

Ukraine president to discuss crisis with former leaders....
ReplyDeleteUkrainian President Viktor Yanukovych is expected to hold talks with three former presidents over the political crisis which began when Ukraine decided not to sign an EU free-trade deal.
The talks come as protesters remain encamped in a central square in the capital Kiev. On Monday, security forces cleared some activists from government buildings.
The stand-off follows weeks of unrest.
EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton will also be in Kiev.
Baroness Ashton will hold talks with government officials, opposition activists and civil society groups "to support a way out of the political crisis", her office said in a statement.
The European Commission says the EU's offer of an association agreement with Ukraine remains on the table, provided Ukraine meets the conditions - and they cannot be renegotiated.
Parallels with 2004
The president's press service said on Monday that Mr Yanukovych would support an initiative described as a "nationwide roundtable" to try to defuse the crisis.
He will meet his three predecessors Leonid Kravchuk, Leonid Kuchma and Viktor Yushchenko.
Mr Yushchenko was Mr Yanukovych's pro-Western opponent in the 2004 presidential election, and eventually came to power on the back of the Orange Revolution.................http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-25311018

Police Break Up Protesters' Barricades in Kiev...
ReplyDeleteKIEV/MOSCOW, December 10 (RIA Novosti) – Police moved in on protesters in Ukraine’s capital in the early hours of Tuesday, breaking up the last of their street barricades and driving the demonstrators into Kiev’s central square in an ongoing push to clear major protest sites.
Interior Ministry troops and riot police broke up protest barricades near Ukraine’s parliament and presidential administration building during the night, driving out several hundred protesters.
Police used shields and batons to dislodge the demonstrators from the sites while some protesters threw tear gas canisters at the troops, local news outlet Ukrainskaya Pravda reported.
About ten people were injured in the operation, according to Ukrainian online television station Hromadske.tv. Two of the injured were police, local news outlet Ukrainskaya Pravda reported, while at least one protester was also overcome by tear gas he said was used by the police, according to a BBC correspondent.
A RIA Novosti correspondent at the scene reported that at least 2,000 Interior Ministry troops and riot police officers were involved in the operation, though Ukrainskaya Pravda put police numbers at about 400.
No one was arrested in the operation, local media outlets reported.
Street protests have been taking place in Kiev and other Ukrainian cities since the government announced on November 21 that it would postpone signing free trade and association agreements with the EU in favor of strengthening ties with Moscow.
Thousands of protesters in Kiev barricaded a number of important state buildings and set up a tent camp in the central Independence Square in rallies to demand snap elections and the resignation of President Viktor Yanukovych.
Police shut down three central metro stations near the square at the heart of the capital's protests on Monday, citing an anonymous bomb threat. The stations were reopened for operation Tuesday morning.
