This should be the final nail in the coffin for Timoshenko's baseless and fruitless manuevers to try to prove fraud.All she will do now is try to disrupt everything Yanu will try to accomplish. NOtice that Yanu has moved to the center now in politics and is more pragmatic.He may end up being a decent President.

Mr Yanukovych please be very wary of this person &quot;Obama&quot;. He will drag you down as he has lost most of his political credits and he has no money to give or lend to Ukraine. If you think he is a true supporter of your country you should invite him and Mr Medvedev for a &quot;beer and vodka summit&quot; in Kiev.When they become druken their tongues will loosen and you will hear the truth from these men....Good Luck

Good for Obama, he finally did something right. It has only taken a year.

He will do fine as long as he doesn't listen to Darth Vader (Putin).

from one corrupt disqualified president to another.

1) FACT: Yanu corrupted, rigged &amp; attempted to steal the election 5 years ago. Plain fact. Like it or lump it. Facts are facts.

Only Yanu and his kremlin cronies contend that they were &quot;robbed&quot; of election victory 5 years ago.

When a bandit is so blinded by his ravenous greed that he cannot even see what the whole entire world (outside of moscow and the donbas) can testify to, then there is clearly no hope at all.

OBAMA: where is your birth certificate? Why are all your records sealed? Why won't you prove that you are a genuine american citizen and therefore qualified to be president there?

YANUKOVICH: you stole the last election: be a MAN and admit it. But if you do have any honesty in you at all, that will force people to then begin to question all of the mysterious voter results in THIS election too.

Once a thief, always a thief.
