He says he will not leave Ukraine and will not resign, since he is a legitimately elected president. He describes the events in Ukraine as “vandalism, banditry and a coup”.

UPDATE: Kiev Post reports that opposition leaders have found documents at President Yanukovych’s residence near the capital which include a “blacklist of journalists”.
