Yanukovych opposed to interference of foreign politicians in domestic affairs of Ukraine
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has said that the interference of foreign politicians and officials in the domestic political situation of Ukraine is unacceptable.
"I am opposed to representatives of other countries arriving and thinking that they can boss as they please - at [Kyiv's main square] Maidan or not at Maidan. I am utterly opposed to someone coming to us and teach how we should live here, we have always had enough wisdom, political will and, if you want, responsibility to the future generations," Yanukovych told reporters.
"We should learn to agree and protect jointly our national interests. And we should not go to any world capital with a hand outstretched," the president said.
