The morning plenary session of parliament has closed, the evening one is due to open at 16.00.

According to an UNIAN correspondent, Verkhovna Rada Speaker Arseniy Yatseniuk claimed this in the chamber of parliament. He stressed that lawmakers had been working over a single anti-crisis draft law “till 5 a.m. today”.

“To avoid claims to authors of the draft law, and considering that the Presidential Secretariat took a very active part in its development, a decision was made to propose this draft law as a single one signed by the President of Ukraine”, the Speaker stressed.
