The head of the council of the Batkivschyna United Opposition, Arseniy Yatseniuk, has called on opposition parties to hold talks on the refusal from parliamentary seats and the holding of early parliamentary and presidential elections in Ukraine.

"I'm initiating talks between our future faction in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and our partners in the opposition – Svoboda and Vitali Klitschko's UDAR – regarding the giving up of parliamentary seats and holding early parliamentary and presidential elections in Ukraine," he told reporters at Kyiv Administrative Court of Appeals on Friday.

An Interfax-Ukraine reporter said that the court had rejected a lawsuit lodged by parliamentary candidate Arkadiy Karnatsky regarding the cancelation of a Central Election Commission resolution on the impossibility of establishing the election results in constituency No. 132.
