The daughter of Yulia Tymoshenko, the jailed former prime minister of Ukraine, has called on David Cameron and British officials to rethink their boycott of England's football quarter-final against Italy in Kiev tomorrow night. Eugenia Tymoshenko, who had previously backed the boycott, said in a television interview yesterday that it would be more productive for British politicians to come to Kiev and put pressure on the President, Viktor Yanukovych. The Ukrainian government also blasted the boycott yesterday, as Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Voloshin told The Independent that the move was "pointless and ineffective".
