I can see why Yanukovich wanted cheap Russian gas. Imagine how much it costs to heat that thing.

The yearly gas bill on that dacha alone could probably fund a smallish Ukrainian city for the same length of time.

Its brash opulence, now on display, has fuelled demands that the Russian-backed, elected leader and his allies be held to account for corruption on a grand scale.Despots love the good life, while depriving the people a chance at it. This describes 0bama.

"In a hectic round of voting in the chamber, near where triumphant but wary protesters remain encamped on Kiev's main square, lawmakers stripped the still missing president of his abandoned country home. How I wish the US Congress would show the same amount of fortitude regarding Obama and his criminal regime.

They have some seats in Parliament, but I have no idea where to look to find out how many. Everything comes up Wiki, and I don’t trust it.

apparently the previous president ran away to the eastern sections because the military close at hand refused to support him.

It doesn’t matter how many elected seats they have, since they physically took the parliament building over and forced a vote to oust the sitting President.
Why are you still pretending democratic process matters?

The guy was impeached apparently even by members of his own party.
Folks even in the east don't like him anymore.
Even Putin has pulled money from him.
Yanuk is finished, comrade.

REPORTER: “What is your reaction to the uprising in Ukraine, Mr president?”
CYPHER: “ I and my team have been in constant talks with Putin and his council, warning him that he should comply with democratic principles in the Ukraine, unfornately, he didn’t heed my advice”
“Further more, I can’t and won’t comment on the rumor that may appear in the media or elsewhere that I had a hand in the freeing of the Ukrainian people”
