Good guy owned by Soros who has stated and his party already attempted to pull their troops out of Iraq. Some good guy.It was defense minister Aleksandr Kuz'muk who asked for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq back in September. Kuz'muk was a recent appointment of the president, Kuchma. Yanukovich was Kuchma's PM.

History in the making in Ukraine - a major blow to communism and the aspirations of Vladamir Putin of rebuilding the former Soviet Union - ping.

It seems the opposition has now claimed control of the parliament and most likely named Yushchenko as the president. He walked to the podium with a Bible and a copy of the oath in his hand.
300,000 pro-Yushchenko supporters are in the city square and watched what I described above on a jumbo TV.
They're celebrating what they believe is their new president. Provocateurs are infiltrating the crowd. Special forces are said to be moving in to disband the crowd.
This is now a clearly declared revolutionary effort. A confrontation seems unavoidable now.

No, you need to do some better searching. It was yanukovych's second in command and her party that started the bill in the Rada to remove the troops and the Our Ukraine party all voted for it. Thankfully they are not the majority. He has also stated flat out he will remove the troops.
