KIEV, May 5 (RIA Novosti) - The leader of a major "orange" revolution party in Ukraine said Saturday its MPs are willing to return to the legislature to help resolve the country's political crisis.

Yulia Tymoshenko said her eponymous bloc's faction will return to parliament to work on anti-crisis laws following the announcement that President Viktor Yushchenko and Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych had reached a compromise deal on early elections.

"We are willing to meet the coalition halfway and return to Ukraine's parliament to adopt a package of enabling legislation that would put an end to the crisis," Tymoshenko said.

Tymoshenko's bloc finished second in March 2006 elections, but a coalition built with "orange" revolution allies, including Yushchenko's Our Ukraine, collapsed after the Socialists defected to the rival camp, led by Yanukovych's pro-Russian Party of Regions. Her 125-strong faction withdrew from the 450-seat assembly in protest.

On Friday, Yushchenko and Yanukovych said they had agreed to hold early elections - a deal seen as a major breakthrough in the month-long standoff over the president's April 2 order to disband parliament to stop his arch rival from usurping power.
