So how did the Stability and Reform coalition (will this soon be another oxymoron like the Anti-crisis coalition?) get created and why? Yanukovych was unwilling to call snap election ostensibly because there was no money for new elections. He also may have feared that Regions would face stiff competition from BYuT in parliamentary elections. While the Communists and Bloc Lytvyn would support Regions in a coalition these three factions only added up to 219 deputies .Regions didn't have sufficient faction support to build a coalition, but it did have a majority of support among deputies. Thus, Regions solved this problem by changing how coalitions are formed. Now it could snatch select BYuT and NSNU deputies willing to join the Stability and Reform coalition. And the coalition was formed.
