Zerkalo Nedeli discusses the possibility of a "Intelligent autocracy, mobile and efficient – that is what Ukraine needs now"if Tymoshenko and Yanukovich form a coalition. Predictably, people from eastern Ukrainian cities support this move, while residents from Lviv are against a Regions-BYuT coalition.
The engine to establish a coalition with the “Regions” has been launched. The offer to Lytvyn faction to join the democratic coalition in order to revive it has been made – by the Premier. With one reservation — the Speaker will be from the Lytvyn faction, but not be Lytvyn himself. Still, Yulia Tymochenko hardly believes in the revival of the democratic coalition – Victor Yushchenko’s order to Our Ukraine faction to exit the coalition, his order to the Presidential quota ministers to ignore the sessions of the Cabinet of Ministers, and his ban to heads of regional and district administrations to come to the Cabinet of Ministers’ session on the budget leave no illusions as to the future of their relationship.Yushchenko also repeated that he thinks that ByuT-Regions agreement is an attempt to seize power and is demanding that the laws passed on 2nd of September be annulled before he renews the coalition, which formally ends 13th of September. He described a possible BYuT-Regions coalition as"non-European".
However, with the formal demise of the coalition Tymoshenko has instructed her deputies to prepare for early elections. Ukrainska Pravda reports that the prime minister believes that there is only a 10% of a new coalition, but not with Regions. The new coalition would have included Bloc Lytvyn and Nasha Ukraina, however she now believes that there is a 90% of early elections.
