Yushchenko's party calls for restoration of Orange team
President Viktor Yushchenko’s party has reportedly given its backing to a restoration of the Orange Revolution team, calling for a coalition to be formed with its estranged ally, Yulia Tymoshenko, and the Socialists, Ukrainian media reported today.
The decision, allegedly made late yesterday by a senior party council, puts added pressure on Yushchenko to set aside animosity toward Tymoshenko, whose party came in first among the Orange forces in the March 26 parliamentary election.
