IDADI YA WATU WALIOSOMA HABARI HII: Ukraine's Communist party is collecting funds to buy President Yushchenko a ticket to the US. The people behind the move say the mock campaign symbolises the "people's impeachment" of their current leader.

Party members announced the plan during parliament's daily session, bringing turmoil to the meeting. Supporters started throwing paper airplanes and waving posters with the US flag.

After that they brought in a suitcase which they used to collect the money for the president's departure.

“We’ve bought him a ticket with an open date and asked the US president to give employment to George W. Bush’s puppet,” Evgeny Tsarkov, Communist party member, explained.

He said the party is going to award Yushchenko with an order “for giving up the interests of Ukraine to Romanians.”
