"We express our heartfelt sympathy to all those injured people as well as to the relatives of killed people.
We urge to immediately stop the violence, thoroughly investigate all incidents during which people were killed and injured and to prosecute the criminals. Once again, we invite the European Union countries to consider the measures against the use of violence," said Lithuania's Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the statement.
Ukrainian Government and opposition leaders are urged to immediately return to negotiations for a new government and constitutional reform, because the prolonged political crisis in the country becomes less and less controllable. "Today is the day when the decision on Ukraine's future is being made.
We invite Ukraine's political leaders to assume the responsibility, to ensure the respect of human rights and freedoms and to effectively resolve the political crisis. Only the constructive dialogue can stop the violence and prevent from the provocations," highlighted MFA in the statement.
