Polish Foreign Minister Says 'No Coup' in Kiev
The dramatic events in Kiev on Saturday do not amount to a coup, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said, after the Ukrainian president accused the emboldened opposition of a coup d'etat as it asserted control in the capital.
"No coup in Kiev. (Government) buildings got abandoned," Sikorski tweeted, adding that Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has 24 hours to sign into law constitutional reforms agreed under a peace deal on Friday, which Poland helped broker.
