foreign notes: Yanukovych marked for life

foreign notes: Yanukovych marked for life:

"Lots of speculation in the German media that when their foreign minister, Guido Westerwelle returns home from his current visit to Kyiv on Friday, he may be taking back Yulia Tymoshenko as passenger on his plane.

Other top Euro-deputies are 'cautiously optimistic' too.

But Ukrainian foreign minister Kozhara plays down hopes and keeps repeating the threadbare mantra - the Tymoshenko problem can only be resolved within a constitutional legal framework . [Kozhara claims that "millions of people in Ukraine believe Tymoshenko committed a crime". Well millions believe she was stitched up too, most Ukrainians consider judges and police to be completely corrupt... and think Yanukovych and Kozhara are wankers too...so what?]

But whatever happens, Yanukovych has already been branded forever for persecuting his greatest political rival. If the Vilnius summit ends in failure, he will get the blame.

Serhiy Vysotsky, in Liga.net considers Yanukovych may be being steered by the formula: Free Tymoshenko, sign Agreement, receive lots of foreign loans..."
