Yanukovych’s radical march to Moscow Taras Kuzio writes: This article is, therefore, a reminder for those optimists and wishful thinkers about that for which Yanukovych stands.

Wishful thinking led many to argue that Ukrainian politicians say one thing during election campaigns and then do another after them.
