KIEV, Oct. 6 – The Ukrainian parliament has passed hotly-disputed bills regarding the rebel-controlled eastern territories following debates interrupted by scuffles, The Associated Press reported.
The bills submitted by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko have drawn fierce criticism from some lawmakers.
Opponents of the bills argued that they don't assert Ukraine's control of the eastern territories strongly enough and swarmed the speaker's platform Thursday, causing the session to be adjourned.
