Guardian: Reports the following from the Ukraine, " Interim government wants fugitive president, believed to be in hiding in Crimea, to be tried over violence that left 82 dead ".
Lets Get Real:
One suspects that Yanukovych is either in Russia now or close to getting out, Putin would not want him opening him mouth to an International Court, one suspects that the former President would blame the deaths in the Ukraine on President Putin, that could cause a crisis in itself between the powers. The Russians on the PR front have been negative, but they have not taken any military action yet, are they playing the long game, it knows that Obama and the rest of the World Press will lose interest in the long term, with fresh elections coming to the Ukraine the attention of the press will turn to the next crisis, there is always Iran and Syria. One can suspect that Putin will use his oil money to get a candidate who is not overly hostile to Russia, and a Ukraine in the EU might have long term positives, Putin wants to be a power in the West, and Ukraine might be his decoy in to the EU.
