Ukraine: Police Fire Tear Gas At Protesters

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 24 November 2013 | 23.59

Thousands of pro-Europe protesters in Ukraine have attempted to storm government buildings in the capital of Kiev, clashing with police who fired tear gas to keep them back.

Some demonstrators tried to break through police ranks with some throwing stones and hitting officers with the signs they were carrying, as police fought back with batons, according to reports.

The demonstration was led by Ukraine's top opposition figures, who are calling for the protests to continue until President Viktor Yanukovych agrees to sign the free trade and political association deal with the EU next Friday.

Ukraine's leaders announced suddenly last week that they were pulling out of the EU agreement, saying the country could not afford to break trade ties with Russia.

The Russian government has worked aggressively to derail the EU deal and bring Ukraine into the Moscow-dominated Customs Union.

But the protesters are demanding the government reverse course and sign a landmark agreement with the European Union.
