A junior ally in Ukraine's ruling coalition quit on Wednesday, calling the alliance a "facade" and demanding an overhaul of the way the country was run. “Yesterday extraordinary events took place in parliament”, party leader of the Fatherland faction Yulia Tymoshenko said, urging other lawmakers to walk out of the coalition as well. “The Fatherland faction decided today at its morning meeting on the only possible step – this is quitting the coalition”. The announcement came just a day after Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk survived a no confidence vote in parliament. (Photo by Gleb Garanich/Reuters)
