The leader of the Radical Party, Oleg Lyashko, told reporters that the three parties will convene a meeting where they will adopt a new deal to improve the chances of Groisman receiving parliamentary support for his nomination.
Earlier the Bloc of Petro Poroshenko decided to suspend its membership in the current coalition until a new prime minister is elected. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko urged parliament last week to form a new government and end the political crisis in Ukraine.
