 The Party of Regions faction in Ukraine's parliament says it opposes the involvement of the armed forces to recapture the governmental buildings seized by armed people in the eastern regions of Ukraine, the faction's leader Oleksandr Yefremov says.

 “We’re strongly against the use of force. What is more, we believe that
involvement of the Ukrainian army against Ukrainian civilians is
unacceptable,” Yefremov said at a sitting of the Conciliation Council of
parliamentary factions’ and committees’ heads in Kyiv on April 14.
