Viktor Yanukovich
Viktor Yanukovich is a Ukrainian politician who served as the country's president from 2010 until his ousting in 2014 during the Euromaidan protests. His presidency was marked by controversy, including allegations of corruption and a pro-Russian stance that led to widespread discontent among the Ukrainian populace. Yanukovich fled to Russia amid the political turmoil following the protests against his decision to reject a trade agreement with the European Union, which ignited mass demonstrations. His departure paved the way for significant political changes in Ukraine, including the Russian annexation of Crimea and the ongoing conflict in Eastern Ukraine.
