Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov says that the situation around the protest rallies in Kyiv resembles a coup.

“It has all the signs of a coup. This is a very serious matter. We take
patience, but we would like our partners not to feel a total absence of
authority,” Azarov said he said at a meeting with ambassadors of EU
countries, Canada, and the United States in Kyiv on Monday.
