He noted that the decision was adopted by "an overwhelming majority."
At this, an UNIAN correspondent reported MP Barna announced that he had left the faction at a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada Procedure Committee that was assessing Barna's responsibility for the incident with Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
"It may not be the European-style behavior, but other methods don't work. Because, if Yatsenyuk does not leave, I am afraid people will take him out," Barna said.
"The prime minister, with the rating of his political force falling down to zero over six months, should resign automatically. The prime minister, who has not fulfilled the agreements, should resign," Barna said.
He also complained that MPs did not put their signatures he was collecting, under a resolution calling for the Ukrainian government's resignation, according to Ukrainian online newspaper Ukrainska Pravda.
