Brawl Breaks-Out In Ukraine Parliament



Newsweek: Watch: Fists Fly in Ukraine Parliament After MP Tries to Lift Prime Minister

A fist fight broke out in the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian parliament) on Friday, after one lawmaker tried to lift and hurl Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk while he was delivering his annual report.

The fight appeared to begin as member of parliament Oleg Barna from President Poroshenko’s BPP party tried to forcibly remove Yatsenyuk from behind the podium, news channel RBC Ukraine reports. Barna walked up to the podium with a bouquet of flowers, set them in front of the Prime Minister and grabbed him.

WNU Editor: They are now eating their own .... fist fights today, bullets tomorrow. I have stayed away from covering Ukraine for the past few weeks .... every-time I talk with my remaining family and friends in Ukraine I am always hearing the same thing .... high unemployment, sky-rocket prices, crime and corruption, and the threat of being drafted into the army. But once in a while there is some comedy .... Joe Biden Lectures Ukraine (New York Times editorial).
