re: #519 Gus

Yanukovych is opposed to the inclusion of Ukraine into the EU but he’s going to capitulate to a peace deal brokered by the EU?

He may have no choice. His party is collapsing, with its membership fleeing the country, he’s lost 20% of Ukraine’s territory, the country is on the brink of outright civil war, the Russians didn’t come through with the second tranche of financial aid, and it’s entirely likely that Putin may well throw him under the bus because he’s become too much of a liability. Putin will find a more acceptable toady for Kyiv, and Yanuk can spend the rest of his days in exile, remembering that he was overthrown not once, but twice in the span of a decade.
