 | | | Oleksandr Potiekhin, Boudewijn Van Eenennaam, Daniel Fried, Radek Sikorski, Martin Palous, Boguslaw Winid | | Viktor Yanukovych, the Ukrainian presidential candidate favored by Russia, has proclaimed himself the winner of Sunday's run-off election despite charges of widespread election fraud. In the meantime, his opponent, the pro-Western Viktor Yuschchenko, has been recognized by several Ukrainian city councils as president and has taken the oath of office in Kiev's parliament building. The current Kuchma government is mobilizing its security forces, and tanks have been seen on their way to the capital. Will Ukraine manage to defend its people's will and join the family of democratic European nations, or will it slide toward oligarchic rule ultimately controlled from the Kremlin? Please join us for this urgent briefing on the dramatic events in Ukraine. We will be presenting letters on the crisis from Vaclav Havel and Lech Walesa, the former presidents of the Czech Republic and Poland.
