The vote came barely an hour after Mr Yanukovych said in a televised address that he would not resign. . . . The opposition is now in effective control of the capital Kiev, with Mr Yanukovych now in Kharkiv, near the Russian border. The vote to "remove Viktor Yanukovych from the post of president of Ukraine" was passed by 328 MPs. In the address, televised before the vote to impeach him, Mr Yanukovych described events in Kiev, as a "coup". He insisted he was the "lawfully elected president" and compared the actions of the opposition to the rise to power of the Nazis in 1930s Germany. In his address Mr Yanukovych also called a raft of votes in Ukraine's parliament on Friday "illegitimate", claiming that MPs had been "beaten, pelted with stones and intimidated". However, he did admit that that some had left his party, calling them "traitors". [link to www.bbc.co.uk] |
