“We are widening our protests,” said Arseniy Yatsenyuk,
the head of jailed ex-Premier Yulia Tymoshenko’s party at a
press conference today in Kiev. “After talks in parliament
today, the prospect of which didn’t look very good, we announced
a political package.”
Demonstrations have escalated against Yanukovych’s

third recession since 2008 and its foreign reserves languish at
the lowest level in seven years.

Ukrainian officials are holding talks in Beijing, Moscow and
Brussels to drum up economic backing amid anger over the
government’s failure to sign the European Union trade pact in
favor of closer ties with Russia.
