UKRAINE-EU-RUSSIA-UNREST-POLITICS

The European Union and the United States expressed concern after the Ukrainian parliament passed laws to curb the right to protest, a move the opposition called a power grab. Western rights groups meanwhile denounced the bills passed as an attempt by President Viktor Yanukovych to impose a "dictatorship" and called on him to veto the legislation.
