STORYLINE
Viktor Yanukovych was inaugurated as Ukrainian president on Thursday, six years after massive protests over vote fraud got his first election victory tossed out.
Ukraine''s president took part in an official parade in front of the President''s administration building.
Yanukovych had earlier taken the oath of office in the Verkhovna Rada, the Ukrainian parliament that has been the scene of intense manoeuvring over the future of his rival Yulia Tymoshenko, who aims to stay on as prime minister.
Yanukovych narrowly defeated Tymoshenko in a presidential election runoff on February 7.
Tymoshenko alleges vote fraud, but she has dropped her court case on the issue, claiming the court was controlled by Yanukovych''s supporters.
International observers had called the 2010 vote free and fair.
Tymoshenko led the 2004 Orange Revolution protests that paved the way for a rerun of the fraud-tainted 2004 presidential election in which Yanukovych had been declared winner.
He lost a revote to Viktor Yushchenko.
Yanukovych, whose margin of victory was only 3.5 percentage points, enters office with a shaky mandate and faces severe national challenges.
He inherits an economy crippled by the global financial crisis and a nation whose political loyalties are polarised.
He has broad support in the Russian-speaking east of the country, but in the Ukrainian-speaking west, he lost in virtually every region to Tymoshenko.
Once considered a Kremlin flunky, the new president promised to carve a unique geopolitical path for Ukraine.
His predecessor''s aim to bring the country into NATO alienated many Ukrainians and angered neighbouring Russia.
Critics said Yushchenko''s push for closer integration with the European Union was made at the expense of paying attention to his country''s serious economic problems and endemic corruption.
Yanukovych, a native Russian-speaker, is expected to bring Ukraine''s closer into Moscow''s influence, but to what extent is unclear.
Russian officials openly supported him in the 2004 election, leading to criticism of outside interference, so Russia kept a low profile in this year''s election.
The parliament has not even been able to pass a budget for this year.

Looking at plain hindsight and all of the events that will unfold within years after this, watching this video from the late 2000s is like looking at the US itself from the mid 2010s until today, we can be for certain that it will also face serious domestic political instability within this decade onwards.
remember watching this live. what a shame he came to power, would rather have Yushchenko for a second term.
If I may ask how did he even win? Was it a low turnout because I heard he was your opposition leader forgive me as I have many questions such as the difference between your prime minister and president
@@phxmaster9684 he won because people believed that he changed, and people were tired of the political chaos of Yushchenko + Tymoshenko + Yanukovych constantly bickering. As you now know, he didn't change a bit, and the political instability got even worse. As for the difference between president and PM, the president is the head of state, and the pm is the head of government.
pseudosoul. Yes I know that term head of state vs head of government but what roles do each have, in the United States our President is both
pseudosoul. And yeah sorry you had to go through that with him, I know lots of good people died having to get that traitorous clown out of office (by definition he’s a traitor since he tried to sell you all out to Russia if I’m correct)
@@_Tangerino and now Ukraine might not even exist in a few years...
He should've gotten Russian troops to take control of the territory and there wouldn't of been a war now.
This is a proud moment in Ukrainian history.
What a shame that Yanukovych was overthrown in an illegal armed coup. After the coup, Ukraine descended into barbarism and civil war and lost its sovereignty.
Never had sovereignty. Had to be a pawn of Russia or else. The Ukraine of today has actual sovereignty even if it means war
@@kroosgiro Actual sovereignty? 😅
By being a U.S puppet and under massive debt now.
Civil War involving other country, interesting Civil War
@@optovolokno2211 So what? Foreign powers can get involved in a civil war. Why is it so difficult to understand that Yanukovych did not leave office in a legitimate way and that some Ukrainians would resist the new authorities?
@@KaibaCorpCEO It's their right to protest but, remember who organized those protests, who supplied thrm with weapons, which event started the war (this is pretty much shows that it is not a civil conflict) and that fact that those regions which separated didn't have the same opinion between themselves, Donetsk was divided by pro-ukrainian and pro-russian protests.
