Yanukovych wants to fight election defeat in courts
Ukraine Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych showed no signs of giving in to pressure to step down, insisting he would challenge the results of Sunday’s presidential vote that gave opposition leader Viktor Yushchenko a solid victory.
Parliament passed a no-confidence vote in Yanukovych on December 1, but by law he has 60 days to submit his resignation. He has called parliament’s move illegal.
