Leader Barack Obama wanted to call a puppet of the former head of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych, but in reality declared ex-the President Victor Yushchenko, said Last news on the first day weekend the head of the international Department of the Federation Council Konstantin Kosachev.

"It's interesting: yesterday in a televised interview, the head of the United States made a very specific reservation, calling the President of Ukraine, the former in power at a time when Obama himself came to the White house, "corrupt leader" and the puppet capital of Russia. The piquancy of the situation is that just at the moment of the appearance of Obama at the helm of power in the USA, in January 2009, the highest office in Kiev was occupied by Viktor Yushchenko, " - said Kosachev." About his corruption, I will not be judged, but on the issue of accountability Moscow Viktor flinched from such assumptions, " said the Senator.

according to his statement, apparently, the American leader meant that Victor Yanukovych. However, relative to its "prorossijskosti" too not all so is simple, he said." This is the most leader, who declared its course toward integration into the European Union, which is preparing an agreement with the EU in harm to relations with Russia, which slowed down only when he saw the devastating consequences of such step for Ukraine ", - the Deputy reminded.

He said, because It was Pro-Ukrainian, but he was not forgiven, and simple deferral. European leaders, the guarantors of their agreement with the Maidan broke their promises, when there was an opportunity to make a bet on Pro-Ukrainian, and blindly and unconditionally Pro-Western politicians, said Kosachev.
