A Ukrainian protester wrapped in the European Union flag stands in front of riot police in Kiev, on December 4, 2013 Ukraine's prime minister Wednesday warned the opposition to end mass protests over a rejected deal with the EU, saying the reasons for demonstrating were now exhausted and protestors could be held criminally responsible. With Ukraine in need of cash to shore up its finances as thousands of demonstrators kept up a permanent presence in the heart of the capital Kiev, President Viktor Yanukovych pressed on with a three-day visit to China which could net significant financial deals. A senior Ukrainian delegation also held talks with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in Moscow, which has watched the protests with a wary eye but could also ease financial pressure on its cash-strapped neighbour. With pro-EU demonstrators blockading the seat of government, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov said the fact he had survived a vote of no confidence the day earlier showed it was time for the country's biggest protests since the 2004 Orange Revolution to wind down.
