Pro-European Union protests entered their third week in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev.
As many as a million people may have joined in the protests calling on Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich to fire his cabinet and reject plans that would form a closer alliance with Russia, according to reports.
Thousands of protesters have been camping out in the capital’s central square.
Protests broke out after the Ukrainian government decided not to sign a trade and integration deal with the European Union.
