Protesters blocked Hrushevsky Street and there are serious traffic jams in the center of Kyiv. Initially, the protest took place near the Verkhovna Rada, but now activists have moved to the Cabinet building and set off flares. They also introduced a new demand – not to appoint Viktor Kryvitsky as the head of the customs service. Owners of cars with European license plates blocked Kyiv center and set off flares
