Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych is to discuss closer co-operation with Russia, as protests continue in Ukraine over his move not to sign an EU deal, the BBC reports.
Securing badly needed loans and a discount on Russia’s gas are reportedly on the agenda when Mr Yanukovych meets President Vladimir Putin.
But pro-EU protesters in Ukraine fear Mr Yanukovych may sign an accord tying Kiev to the Russian-led Customs Union.
