Mass protests in Kiev (Photo Credit: By Nessa Gnatoush - via commons.wikimedia.org

On Saturday, February 22nd, the world woke up to the news that Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych had been voted out from office by the country's parliament, culminating the often deadly protests that have gripped the country since November 2013. Ironically, unlike with the Arab Springs, the residents of Ukraine had not been protesting to oust their leader but to try to convince him to change his policies.

                      Presidents should do things with the majority rules thing and not make sudden changes.I think the president would sort of be giving away his country if he did that.
