Before the start of a plenary session of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on Wednesday, representatives of three opposition factions - Batkivschyna, UDAR and Svoboda again blocked the rostrum and the presidium of the parliament.

They stretched the banner reading "Stop dictatorship!" over the presidium's table. The door through which the parliament's leadership enters the session hall is blocked by chairs, an Interfax-Ukraine correspondent reported.
