Yushchenko threatens to prosecute Yanukovych

Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko today threatened to prosecute PM Yanukovych if he refuses to take part in a new election.

Yushchenko accuses Yanukovich of violating the Constitution by poaching members of Our Ukraine to create a majority in Parliament.

"I stress one more time that it is obligatory to implement the decree of Ukraine's president. Any refusal to implement it will result in criminal proceedings," Yushchenko told a meeting of Ukraine's Security Council, where he sat next to Yanukovich. "I will not take a single step towards rescinding the decree."

Can you say ESCALATION?

Sheena,

Vo-istyno Voskres. That's an awesome post. You should make sure to re-post it this year. I am trying to come up with an Easter pumpernickel recipe... Pressure mounting, maybe something for the basket.
In the words of Pooh, think brain think.
