A fight broke out in the Ukrainian parliament on December 4, 2014 after the first vote for the parliamentary committees. The clash occurred after Speaker Vladimir Groisman has not announced a proposal to exclude from senior positions in the committees certain members, who on January 16, 2014 voted in favor of anti-Euromaidan laws. Among the participants of the fight were: Sergey Kaplan, Yuri Levchenko, Semen Semenchenko and Volodymyr Parasyuk. As noted by Yuri Levchenko, the fight started when someone tried to silence Parasyuk by saying: «You are not at the Maidan anymore».
