Yushchenko wants cabinet blockade

Excerpt:

Ukraine's opposition leader Viktor Yushchenko has urged his supporters to prevent a planned cabinet meeting from going ahead on Wednesday.

Mr Yushchenko, declared winner of the re-run presidential election, said the "illegal government" should not be allowed to meet.

The planned meeting is due to be chaired by his defeated rival, Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych.

Mr Yushchenko urged supporters to renew their blockade of government offices.

Results unofficial

"In what country is it possible for a government that has been dismissed to say that it doesn't want to go? No meeting of an illegitimate government can take place," he told thousands of supporters in Kiev.

The electoral authorities say Mr Yushchenko won more than half of the vote, but that the result would not be declared official until allegations of fraud were investigated.

Mr Yanukovych has refused to accept the result, alleging thousands of irregularities.
