People Rally Outside Gov't HQ in Kiev, Demand ‘Radical’ Reforms

Dozens of angry demonstrators gathered outside the government headquarters in Kiev on Wednesday demanding the implementation of much-promised radical economic reforms.

The rally was organized by members of the Center Youth Initiative Group and the Ukrainian Nationalist Self-Defense Organization (UNSO).

The protesters insist that a Cabinet minister, who fails to kick start “genuine” reforms within a month, tender his or her resignation.

The protesters want to hand the list of their demands to a government representative, but no one has so far come out to pick it up.
