More congratulations for Yanukovich

by Andy on November 26, 2004

A grand total of six countries have recognised Yanukovich as the legitimate victor in Ukraine’s Presidential election.

All six are members of the Commonwealth of Independent States.  Co-incidence, surely…

Six *countries* surely. I thought Victor Katolyk reported that China had also recognized Yanukovich.

Thanks Joel, nice spot. Duly amended.

Although, I wonder if one could still get away with referring to some of the former Soviet republics as counties of Russia?

Yeah, “counties” did have its own ounce of truth. How about tabulating how many boroughs of NYC have recognized Yanukovich over Yushchenko?
