KIEV, July 20 - Yulia Tymoshenko, the leader of the second largest group in Parliament, pledged to create a single bloc of pro-Western parties to defeat pro-Russian Regions Party in the event of an early election.

The bloc, which would include President Viktor Yushchenko??™s Our Ukraine and a number of smaller pro-Western and liberal parties, would apparently re-unite the camp that had been split since September 2005.
