Despite the presidential veto [1], anti-tax code protests continue [2] in Ukraine (some photos – here [3]). @O_Severyn questions [4] (UKR, #kat_ua [5]) the authenticity of happiness displayed by some protesters in response to Parliament approving [6] the new code with presidential proposals: “They say fireworks and happy “Maidanarbeiters” is a work of [Party of Regions [7]]’ hands and wallets.” @Retwittka warns [8] (UKR) that “MPs have left Maidan” [9] (UKR), which leaves the protesters’ tent city unprotected from the actions of law enforcing authorities. @yurashlviv writes [10] (UKR): “Entrepreneurs prepare new protest.”
