KYIV. Feb 14 (Interfax) - The statement by Kyiv Prosecutor Mykola Beskyshkyy regarding the list of streets and buildings in Kyiv which protesters should vacate by February 17 so that the so-called law on amnesty can come into effect is a provocation, the national resistance headquarters created by protest activists said.
"The list of streets and buildings, which was voiced today by the Kyiv prosecutor as a condition for applying the law on amnesty regarding protest participants contradicts the law itself passed by the Party of regions on January 29," the Batkivschyna party posted the headquarters' statement on its website.
Such statements are provocations, the headquarters said. "They undermine the process of resolving the conflict and tension in society and are aimed to disrupt the peaceful situation," the document said.
Protestors should free the building of the Kyiv State City Administration, Hrushevsky Street and all central streets where barricades are so that the so-called law on amnesty comes into effect and criminal liability is lifted from people suspected of participating and organizing mass disturbances in Kyiv, Kyiv Prosecutor Mykola Beskyshkyy said at a briefing on Thursday.
It concerns unblocking nine streets in central Kyiv (Hrushevsky, Horodetsky, Khreschatyk, Institutskaya, Tryokhsvyatitelskaya, Proreznaya, Zankovetsky, Maidan, Volodymyrsky Descent) and the dismantling barricades built there, Beskyshkyy said.
Freeing the Kyiv State City Administration building is compulsory, he said.
