Ukraine police told to lighten up for Euros

"We hope our police will be service-oriented and tolerant with fans. We have expressed this message many times to our colleagues in the Interior Ministry," Euro 2012 director Markian Lubkivsky told reporters.

Ukraine, co-host of the tournament with Poland, expects at least 700,000 fans from around the world to attend matches in four Ukrainian cities - Kiev, Lviv, Kharkiv and Donetsk.
