Was not Viktor Yanukovych previously elected President by a majority of Ukrainians? I heard of allegations of fraud, but was it any worse than what takes place in USA Presidential elections? Certainly Yanukovych still has a large number of supporters, doesn’t he?
I think the operative word was *had* supporters. He’s fled, hiding out in some bunker.
Governing against the people has a way of losing their support, if you catch my drift. But when he ordered his Berkut to start shooting people? -That’s when he lost everyone. Think about this: the Ukrainian Parliament voted unanimously; 328-0 to impeach Yanukovich. Would that ever happen in this country?
