President Viktor Yanukovych agrees to a proposed amnesty for anyone who has taken part in the pro-European Union and anti-government protests ever since they started in November on condition that protesters vacate all the government buildings throughout Ukraine occupied by them, said Yanukovych's first deputy chief of staff Andriy Portnov.
Such an amnesty was proposed by opposition leaders Arseniy Yatseniuk,
Vitali Klitschko and Oleh Tiahnybok during a meeting with Yanukovych at
the president’s office in Kyiv on Saturday.
“The Ukrainian president agreed to this proposal, and we believe that
this decision could be supported by the parliamentary majority on
condition that all occupied premises are completely vacated throughout
our country, including on Independence Square,” Portnov said.
