The lawmakers were blocking the rostrum.
Ukrainian MPs started a skirmish during a Verkhovna Rada session on Thursday over the land market bill.
At first, a number of lawmakers blocked the rostrum. Leader of the Batkivshchyna faction Yulia Tymoshenko took the seat of Speaker Dmytro Razumkov.
Clashes erupted between several legislators.
First Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Ruslan Stefanchuk was seen standing by the rostrum, while a member of the Opposition Platform – For Life Party Vadym Rabinovych and his faction were blocking it.
Despite altercations, Stefanchuk decided to follow the agenda and continue consideration of bills, including that on the land market.
Servant of the People faction leader David Arakhamia said he did not rule out that the deputies would have to work overnight to vote for the land bill.

Ha,ha,ha,ha! Ukraine is still alive! 😂
If a child behaved like this it would be smacked. To think this rabble are supposed to be setting an example to the public.
The Russian lovers trying to stop this bill, that means it must be good for Ukraine. Obviously Putin’s puppets will do anything to stop investment in Ukraine, or will they lose out with some corrupt schemes involving land deals?
Yep, the mafia doesn’t like a free market.
WTF is Tymoshenko doing there, is she now working for the Opposition bloc?
