KIEV (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich on Thursday called for an emergency session of parliament to end the crisis in the country which has brought thousands of anti-government protesters on to the streets and caused violent clashes with police.
"Mass unrest has been accompanied by violence, bloodshed, fires. That means that today the situation must be settled immediately," the presidential website quoted Yanukovich as telling parliament speaker Volodymyr Rybak.
