Based on the lie that he would pursue closer ties to the West. Once elected he did a 180.

Correct. Last year I saw some footage of members of his OWN party planning a celebration for the day of the EU-Ukraine deal, with a blue and yellow flag theme (the colours of both Ukraine and the European Union):



A few days later these young party activists were stunned and disappointed with the sudden reversal.

Not to mention that Yanukovych is utterly and totally corrupt.

To quote the Kyiv Post: "Ukraine is in the midst of a financial as well as a political crisis, one that is essentially caused by embezzlement from the Ukrainian state by its rulers to the tune of $8 billion to $10 billion a year.". The level of corruption is mind-blowing.
