Deposed Ukrainian president says still president
Updated | By Staff Writer
"I still consider myself to be the legal head of the Ukrainian state," said Yanukovych in a statement to Russian news agencies, his first comments since February 22. "I am compelled to ask the Russian Federation to ensure my personal security from the actions of extremists," he said, adding that the latest decisions by the Ukrainian parliament "do not have legitimate character."
The statement, released simultaneously by Russia's three main news agencies, gave no further clue about his whereabouts.
