He really doesn’t get it does he?
Via VOA News:
Ukraine’s embattled president, Viktor Yanukovych, is offering the position of prime minister to one of the leaders of the political opposition, which has waged two months of anti-government protests.
News of the offer appeared Saturday on the president’s website, a day after he agreed to re-shuffle his government and amend controversial new anti-protest laws.
It is unclear whether the opposition leader, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, has responded.
The opposition has demanded that both President Yanukovych and Ukraine’s number two leader, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, step down. Protesters have also been calling for early elections.
The crisis was spawned by Mr. Yanukovych’s November 21 decision to back out of a trade agreement with the European Union in favor of closer economic ties with Russia.
