Any news about Yanukovich? It'd be nice if they managed to arrest him before he flees to Russia.

He's either north, west, east, or south of Kharkiv.

Am I the only one that can draw the parallels to Romania 1989?

You certainly can draw parallels, but they wouldn't really be appropriate.

I'll admit I was very wrong about this situation. At the time, I was expecting a Ceausescu-like result for Yanukovych. Obviously, I was very wrong.

This situation is very troubling. The US cannot be the primary country opposing Russia at this point. The US has virtually no political capital in influencing Russia. Unless a major European power makes a stand, Russia will have its way with non-NATO Eastern Europe.
