On January 17 President of Ukraine Yanukovych signed a bill aimed at curbing anti-government protests. The bill was passed in parliament where MPs from Party of the Regions and the communists used a quick show of hands rather than the usual system of electronic voting
The opposition leaders described the move as "illegitimate". Vitali Klitschko condemned it as a "coup d'etat". Secretary of State John Kerry said: "the steps are anti-democratic. They are taking from the people of Ukraine their choice and their opportunity for the future"
We people of Ukraine and Ukrainian diaspora demand to impose immediately personal sanctions on Viktor Yanukovych, Vitaliy Zakharchenko, MPs from Party of the Regions and Communist Party until the signed laws will be revoked.
It's time for urgent actions.
