Regions will attempt to form a new coalition and avoid early elections. The speaker of the Rada has given the coalition 10 days to present documents proving that its still in existence. For this reason, Tymoshenko is attempting to keep her coalition intact. However, the vote on the election amendment revealed that the BYuT coalition does not have a working majority. Regions thinks that failure to comply by March 2nd would mean that the BYuT led coalition is no longer in existence. In other words, a Regions led coalition could be formed. This could also lead to another legal challenge, this time on the dismissal of the coalition.
Court and Coalition
Tymoshenko's case is currently being heard in the Higher Administrative Court. The court suspended the CEC election result, but Yanukovych can still take the oath of office. The notion that Yanukovych would keep Tymoshenko seems more far fetched now. Yanukovych would do better to get rid of her and install someone loyal (and dependent) on him.
