Last week the All-Ukrainian Youth, Ukraine's Hope Association and Youth
Movement picketed Verkhovna Rada, protesting Speaker Tkachenko's pro-Moscow
policy.
Interviewed by Interfax Ukraine, one of the organizers, People's Deputy
Taras Shamaida, stated that "during his last visit to Moscow Speaker Tkachenko
in reality betrayed Ukraine's national interests."
The pickets chanted, "Tkachenko, come out!" and sang a New Year's carol,
adding "Happy New Year without Tkachenko!"
