Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych vows that he will continue dialogue with the opposition leaders to stop violence in the country.

"I will host an anti-crisis center session now. There has been contact, and we will continue a dialogue with the opposition leaders," Yanukovych said at a meeting which heads of churches and religious organizations on Friday.

"I will be doing all I can to stop this conflict and stop violence," Yanukovych said. "If we can do this on a good note, let's leave it on a good note, and if we can't, we'll use all legitimate methods," he said.
