DONETSK, October 10 (Itar-Tass) -- The Party of Regions may initiate
disbandment of the parliament in case its leader Viktor Yanukovich wins
the presidential elections, the chairman of the party's Donetsk regional
organisation, Boris Kolesnikov, said after the 20th party conference in
Donetsk on Saturday. The conference nominated Yanukovich as a presidential
candidate.
It will happen in case no compromise is found in the parliament, the
Supreme Rada member said.
The Party of Regions will look for compromises and form a majority to
