On using Russian Armed Forces on the territory of Ukraine
March 1, 2014, Russia's Federation Council gave its consent to the
president for using the armed forces on the territory of Ukraine. The
relevant decision was unanimously adopted by the upper house of
Russian parliament at an extraordinary session. Earlier, Vladimir
Putin submitted to the Federation Council an address on using the armed
forces of Russia on the territory of Ukraine until the normalization
of the socio-political situation in that country. This initiative
was proposed with regard to a plea by Ukraine's legitimate president
Viktor Yanukovych.
Later the Ukrainian leader said that the address to Vladimir Putin
regarding the use of armed forces was triggered by the bout of armed
delinquency in Ukraine. "I've done it for a reason, because I became
target of the criminals. Armed gangs started to cruise around the
country. In particular, they pursued me on the territory of Ukraine,"
he said.
