Ukraine court rejects suits from "orange" parliamentary partners
Topic: Ukrainian political turmoil
The Our Ukraine and Yulia Tymoshenko blocs filed the motions Wednesday in a bid to secure a ruling that would have made last week's election of the parliamentary speaker and the establishment of the "anti-crisis" coalition illegitimate.
But Speaker Oleksandr Moroz, whose defection from the "orange coalition" brought it down, told a parliamentary session: "The Pechersky Court has rejected all four suits by Our Ukraine and the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc."
Moroz said this was the best response to accusations that the new parliamentary leadership and the "anti-crisis coalition" - made up of the pro-Russia Party of Regions, the Socialists and the Communists - were acting illegitimately.
