Correct- as I recall the vote against him in the Ukrainian parliament was 300-0 to impeach him. So it’s not like a mob just forced him out of office- it was a unanimous vote of parliament.

Lol..you guys are kidding right?

Does Presidential impeachment by a show of hands in front of an angry partisan mob really sound legal to you?

Probably, in a parliamentary democracy. How does begging a foreign nation to invade your own look, in terms of legality?

Most of the members from the Party of Regions were ran off, and the remaining ones were threatened with imprisonment if they did not vote for impeachment.

This is not saying that Yakunivich was a good guy, far from it. Putin is also not a good guy either. But, I feel that Euromadien went too far here and would have gotten a much better deal if they would have went along with the proposal brokered by the EU to allow yakunivich to retain power until the election. The EU and US would have had observers on the ground, and Euromadien would have came to power legitimately. If done this way, the south and eastern regions would have abided with the results.
