Yanukovych Sworn in As President of Ukraine

Tearful and triumphant, he finally grabbed power. Vengeful and vibrant, she can now grab him by the horns.







Quote of the day: “As I assume the office of the head of the Ukrainian state, I want to tell the people of Ukraine that all my promises made to them will be fulfilled.”

The clock is ticking, Mr. President.
