There were words of hope in Kiev Friday, a day after protest clashes ended in mass carnage.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovychhad overnight negotiations with opposition and the foreign ministers of Germany, France and Poland were successful, the statement said;
But they were mixed with
messages of caution, if not to say contradiction. And they were followed
by scuffles and loud arguments in Ukraine's parliament.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovychhad overnight negotiations with opposition and the foreign ministers of Germany, France and Poland were successful, the statement said;
The government and the opposition will sign the agreement at noon, a presidential spokesman said.
But France's Foreign
Minister Laurent Fabius sent out a very different message on Twitter,
saying that nothing definitive could be said before the morning was
over. He urged caution.
Germany's foreign
ministry echoed the tone in a tweet: "Very difficult negotiations
throughout the night in #Kyiv (Kiev). Now a break to continue talks
later on."
Even after Ukranian
parliamentarians were called to order and filed back into their seats,
they did not appear in harmonious agreement.
In an unrelated decision, the U.S. State Department has issued a travel
warning for the Ukraine, urging U.S. citizens to postpone travel there
due to the violence.
