Ukraine's Yanukovich to be sworn in, rival fights on
Tue, Feb 16 2010
KIEV (Reuters) - The party of Ukrainian President-elect Viktor Yanukovich on Friday launched moves in parliament to oust the government of Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, his rival who is contesting his election.
World
A draft resolution "on the responsibility of the government" was published on the parliament website by a deputy of Yanukovich's Regions Party faction.
This formula normally marks the beginning of a process leading up to a parliamentary vote of no confidence.
Members of the government, and possibly Tymoshenko herself, can be expected to appear in parliament to give an account of the government's performance.
After this, a vote of deputies can be expected. It will require a simple majority -- 226 votes in the 450-seat Verkhovna Rada (parliament) -- to bring down the government.
Tymoshenko on Friday launched a court appeal against the February 7 runoff vote which Yanukovich won by the narrow margin of 3.5 percent. She says there was large-scale electoral fraud and is seeking a third round of voting.
Yanukovich, who is due to be inaugurated on February 25, has already urged her to step down as prime minister but she has refused.
