http://www.euronews.net/ The husband of Ukraine's jailed opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko has asked for asylum in the Czech Republic.
No decision on Oleksander Tymoshenko's application has been taken yet. But a year ago Prague granted asylum to a minister who had served in Yulia Tymoshenko's government, sparking a diplomatic row with Kiev.
The former premier was sentenced to seven years behind bars in October for abuse of office.
A week ago, she was moved from the capital to the eastern town of Kharkiv, despite protests from her supporters.
