    If you respond with contradicting sources, please check first if they’re funded by NED or similar orgs so I don’t have to do that for you. Appreciate!

        Yanukovych was removed after losing the confidence of both the people and his party through legal processes already afforded to the Ukrainian legislature.

          Yanukovych fled to a country that was actively at the same time invading Ukraine derelicting his duties as President.

          The Ukrainian legislature then voted to remove him

          At which point an election was held and a new president was elected
