Ukrainian govt's resignation would require new coalition formation or early elections - PM Yatseniuk

"If a decision is made on the Cabinet of ministers' resignation, this implies failure to fulfill the coalition agreement. This means that the one who undertakes political responsibility for the government's resignation is supposed to form a new coalition and appoint a new Cabinet of ministers, or otherwise all of us run in early elections. There is no other option," Yatseniuk said at a press conference in Kyiv on Tuesday. Yatseniuk said he was prepared to step down if the parliamentary coalition makes this decision. "If the coalition decides that this prime minister of Ukraine does not meet the requirements set by the coalition, a new coalition and a new government is welcome at the voting hall. I will be honored and proud to hand control over the executive branch to a new premier, but I will complete my work," he said.
