In a separate resolution, also voted on Thursday, MEPs urge Russia to respect the right of Ukrainian citizens to decide the future of their country.
The resolution condemns violence against peaceful protestors in Ukraine and urges the EU and its member states to prepare sanctions, such as a travel ban and an EU asset and property freeze, on Ukrainian officials, legislators and oligarchs personally responsible for the attacks on and deaths of protestors.
MEPs also call for an EU "long-term package of concrete financial support for Ukraine" and saythat a support package should be offered to a credible new interim government to alleviate the tight payments situation.
In a separate resolution, MEPs criticise Russia for exerting economic and political pressure on the EU's eastern neighbourhood countries.
