Today Yushchenko may dissolve the parliament. He announced that the round table talks did not yield a result – Universal of National Unity was not signed. The Ukrainian president is going to address the nation later in the afternoon.
Meanwhile, Wolny, a Belarusian American blogger, found a striking similarity between Tymoshenko and Mary J. Blige. Seems like she - Yula- will have a second chance to become a Ukrainian prime minister.

AC is on, but I slightly feel the heat penetrating through the half-opened window. It is extremely hot on the East Coast now, but definitely this heat is nothing like the pressure Partnership leaders must be feeling now, as the closed trial continues.
The news came that the prosecutor demanded a three-year prison term for Mikola Astrejka and two years for Enira Branickaja, Alaksandr Shalajka, and Cimoch Dranchuk.

Charter97.org published a selection of pictures. Two of them caught a glimpse of Enira and Cimoch.
