Then Rada dismisses the coalition

Yulia Tymoshenko's government was formally dismisses after yesterday's announcement by the speaker that the coalition was no longer active. 7 BYuT deputies, 15 NUNS deputies, and 19 Bloc Lytvyn deputies (41 deputies from the coalition) voted for the dismissal, in total 243 voted to dismiss the government. As I mentioned in an earlier post,  an alternative coalition led by Regions has been ready  for some time. And so Yanukovych's political consolidation continues on, he will soon have a coalition under his control. Video via Pravda.

As for Tymoshenko, she will head into opposition right away rather than wait for a new coalition.
