Ukraine 'on brink of civil war' (3)

Ukraine's first post-independence president has warned the country is on the "brink of civil war".

Leonid Kravchuk, president from 1991 to 1994, urged parliament to "act with the greatest responsibility" as it began a debate on an amnesty for detained protesters.

President Viktor Yanukovych wants any amnesty to be conditional on protesters leaving official buildings and dismantling barricades.

But protesters want him to resign.

It's a real shame. A lot of Polish new stations have been reporting on it because they have been able to get in on the violence and report it right from there.

Take note op, there are times when creating an entirely new topic is not needed if it is similar enough to something already discussed. Like right now, anything involving Ukraines current situation can all go in the same thread, since the events are so close together both chronologically and topicwise.
