"Mr President, I believe strongly in Ukraine’s EU aspirations and I have looked on with shock at the country’s recent descent into political chaos. I do not, of course, support violent protests, but the evidence overwhelmingly points to a popular impeachment of the government and intended peaceful activism which cannot be represented by a few rogue ultranationalist thuggish elements. Rather, the shooting and abductions visited on some of the protestors signify, if proven, a serious indictment of the security services, the
agents provocateurs and the Yanukovych government controlling them all.
Yanukovych made a grave error in snubbing the EU and rejecting the DCFTA at Vilnius, but he has compounded it since with many others. The solution must now be to call elections quickly so that the people can express their will and the country’s future geo-political orientation. I call on the government to free Yulia Tymoshenko and other jailed activists and remind Ukraine of its international obligations to protect the right to peaceful protest and not to become another Belarus. Otherwise it will face serious sanctions."@en1
