A Ukrainian court has sentenced former president
Viktor Yanukovich to 13 years in prison for treason - attempting to
quash a 2014 popular uprising.
Yanukovich was charged with high treason for asking Russian President Vladimir Putin to send Russian troops to Ukraine after he fled the ex-Soviet country.
"Yanukovich committed a crime against the
foundation of Ukraine's national security," Judge Vladyslav Devyatko
said in Kiev's Obolon district court on Thursday Jan 24,2019
