Kiev/Ukraine in Arabic/  Protesters are ready to initiate resignation of Prime Minister,- miner's trade union leaders said.

Ukrainian miners from all around the country have picketed outside Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers building, demanding the renewal of state support for mines.

The state help was removed from Ukraine's 2015 budget. Protesters said they're afraid that without financial support from the government the would be forced to close.

Oleg Turchyn, Miner's trade union leader: "If the government cancels state support for mines that would be the destruction of the coal industry. Because there will be no resources to buy equipment and pay salaries. In fact, we are out of resources already."

If government doesn't respond to their demands, the miners say they will continue protesting and push for the resignation of Ukraine's Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
