Mykola Azarov: There is a coup d'etat attempt in Ukraine

There is a coup d'etat attempt in Ukraine. The Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov told to journalists in Davos (Switzerland).

"There is a coup d'etat attempt in Ukraine. And all who support this coup must explicitly say: yes, we are for overthrow the legitimate authority in Ukraine and not to hide behind the peaceful protesters," Mykola Azarov said.

However, he stressed that you can not consider peaceful protests after the so-called peaceful protesters used Molotov cocktails, capture state institutions and commit other illegal activities.
