Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia refused to extradite Viktor Yanukovych to Kiev

The official representative of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia, Alexander Kurennoy, told reporters that the Russian Federation Government had replied with a refusal to Ukraine for a request for the extradition of former President Viktor Yanukovych. Recall that a similar request came from Kiev in February last year. Kiev explained the need for extradition of Yanukovych by the “pre-trial investigation in one of the cases” conducted in Ukraine.

RIA News cites the statement of Aleksandr Kurenno:

According to the results of consideration, the petition of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine on the temporary arrest and taking into custody of Viktor Yanukovych was left without execution on the grounds stipulated in the Article 3 of the European Convention on Extradition of December 13 of 1957. What is the Ukrainian side informed.

From the 3 article of the said convention:
Extradition is not carried out if the crime for which it is requested is considered by the requested Party as a political crime or as a crime related to a political crime.

The same rule also applies if the requested Party has reasonable grounds to believe that an extradition request in connection with a normal criminal offense was filed with the aim of prosecuting or punishing a person because of his race, religion, nationality or political opinion, or this person’s position may be damaged for any of these reasons.

In fact, the Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia made it clear to the Ukrainian side that the case against Viktor Yanukovych is of an obvious political nature and looks like an attempt to settle accounts with a representative of the previous authorities “Square”.

It is worth noting that in Ukraine, which continues to be lowered in the ranking of countries on the state of affairs in the fight against corruption, Yanukovych is accused of corruption crimes. The charges are being raised against the background of the fact that the current authorities were involved in the so-called Panamanian offshore companies in order to avoid paying taxes to the Ukrainian treasury, according to some Western sources. In this regard, the phrase classic "Who are the judges?" looks very relevant.

Yanukovych, Putin registered with us, and he, as a decent person, will never give Yanukovych to Ukraine.

I would give it, or rather exchange it for political prisoners, but they are languishing quite a few in the SBU dungeons!

He is not ours. He is mu by himself.
But it is useful in that it has a chance to return and a lot of things to recall to those who overthrew it.
Will return, will not return, another question. But as a threat, it’s now useful.

Is yours Romanian? Because not Russian for sure. In principle, there is a well-known story when witnesses heard that VVP said about Yanyka - "he is a traitor." In my opinion, VVP is completely right. Another thing is that yanyk is a map and it can be useful.

[Karasik]

You cannot give out. This will be a big blow to Russia's authority. The entire "Maidan" public will perceive this as an a-a-awesome peremogu. And of course, extradition of Yanukovych is tantamount to a death sentence for him. An accident in a Ukrainian prison or in transit is guaranteed. IMHO. He, of course, is a thief, an imposing gentleman, who has profited from the country, and for this he has no forgiveness. But he's not a killer. Unlike all the current Kiev "lads".

[Finches]

[Blondy]

Yes, I’m raising the question itself - pay attention: some sort of Banderlog junta seizing power requires Russia to extradite a legally elected president! And for whom are they holding us with their arshin?

[GSH-18]

It seems to me that Yanukovosch is still preserved (like a mummy in a bank) until a certain point — something like a link with amenities, a TV and popcorn . What happened in the 14th put his brains in place. The junta doesn’t mess around for long. An option is possible to return Yanukovosch to the political life of Ukraine under certain prevailing circumstances. It’s just that the situation has not yet matured.

[mamont5]

Yanukovych must be judged, but not in the Kiev junta. And to judge him, precisely because he did not take advantage of his duties and the rights of the president, and did not defeat the Nazi coven in the bud. Here is the main fault of Yanukovych.

Yes, and those people who hoped for him as the president of their country will have to judge him. And he betrayed them all by his cowardice and greed. But first, Bandera’s evil will have to be destroyed, and this is unlikely to happen in the near future. Yanyku will have to wait for his sentence. Unfortunately...

The criminal case needs to be opened on Poroshenko. Who, despite all the admonitions, repeatedly refused to disclose the amount of his income. Regime Poroshenko is now in an unenviable position. The government is completely discredited, the country itself is on the brink of disaster, and, worst of all for the current leadership, the United States is less and less interested in further developing its failed project in the country of thieves and plutocrats.

[inkass_98]

I propose to do it differently: skaklys have so many people been instructed to interrogate, that we must obey and call in there all the time. As a result, it turns out that they themselves and voluntarily called such a contingent to themselves, headed by Shoigu and the commander of the Black Sea Fleet, which is easier for them to strangle themselves than to wait for a wonderful moment when they hang up the maydanuts on the lanterns to decorate cities and weights.

[Dmitry Potapov]

Maybe change it to Mariupol? De facto he is nobody! He swore on the Constitution to protect her, and he himself betrayed her and the country too. He's like from “Donetsk”, and why not in Donetsk? Why didn’t he lead Novorossiya? Why didn't you organize resistance? Does it turn out that Zakharchenko and Plotnitsky need Donbass more?

[Pinkie F.]

Quote: Dmitry Potapov

Why did not head Novorossia?

funny question. Yanukovosch turned out to be even more than an empty place. Somewhere in the knees of the political sewer lurked.

[ovod84]

I think you don’t need to give it away, those politicians with whom the West has a bad relationship will know that it’s safe for us if something happens.

[Shiva83483]

Two hands, and for both cheeks and not a suntan. Enough, I won’t forgive the hunchback of Honecker, it was a shame for the whole world. Again? Khrenushki, do not check it out, and so restore authority bit by bit, but lost it at one time. Thanks again to the spotted spermatozoid, it would be better if his mother had pissed it out on nettles, or if dad had spread it on the floor, he would have lived a calmer life ...

[Thunderbolt]

Yanukovych didn’t seem to be a poor man. I’m interested in what was done to his property in Ukraine. Who now lives in his residence, maybe there were some companies, shares in business --- what happened to them now?
In general, I again remembered those troubled times, a film about Crimea, where they wanted to kill him, but our organs saved him --- Putin himself told this, it seemed that he was proud of this and the actions of our intelligence and special forces, expressed himself with great warmth about it How surprising it was to me that our Foreign Ministry constantly "bombed" Kiev with statements about the incompetence and criminal actions of the Kiev conspirators. And then once and immediately unconditionally agreed with the election results and recognized the legitimate rise to power of Pyotr Alekseevich. I saw in these actions of some kind of inconsistency.

[valent45]

So we need to demand the extradition of all those whom our UK found guilty in Ukraine in
war crimes. And there are a lot of them!

[Ros 56]

Yanukovych is certainly not ours, but giving it to banderlogs is like throwing a cage to tigers, and tigers will probably be more humane.

[Ruswolf]

They are not so stupid. When making a request, they are well aware that no one will give Yanukovych ... at least until the next presidential election .....
He is needed .... But why the hell is he needed? What is the main prosecution witness? .....

[7race]

Why do they also have Yanyk? There are plenty of thieves ...

[Egoza]

For the time being, Russia will stay in Russia, and there, you see, there will be a restoration of legal power and it will be temporarily returned so that it can really hold new elections, the corresponding arrests and other necessary things.

[Pinkie F.]

Quote: Egoza

very doubtful. No one will be engaged in the resurrection of a political corpse. He is not interested in anyone. Azarov even makes rather pathetic attempts to say something or create a ridiculous semblance of a government in exile, but where is this one?

Quote: Egoza

so that he really holds new elections,

Yanukovosch cannot be a moderator of elections under any, even hypothetically favorable, circumstances. And to impose it on the hoax is absurd.

[Mordvin 3]

After all, they got the pinochet .. (I do not compare).

Only in exchange for Turchinov.

That dog too. Much worse than those who are now running in Ukraine. Why? With his consent, all this could not be, all this is today's problem. So the criminal is he, the criminal that allowed all this. Give it to the drunken Natsik.

Yanukovych is to blame for all of today's troubles in Ukraine on all counts.

The word "Decent" does not apply to him. He was released early from the jail, in which he sat before his election to the Presiki of Ukraine.

[Babayka]

And he’s not ours. He fucked his pockets. He also looked west, but fled to Russia.

After eliminating Yanukovych, official extortion from Ukrainian business should come to an end.

Over the past four years, Ukraine has experienced an unprecedented robbery by its own rulers: an estimated fortune of the Yanukovych family is $ 12 billion. If the new government intends to return at least part of the loot, it will need international assistance in this matter.
Anders Aslund, an adviser to the Ukrainian government on economic issues, writes in the past.

In the yard 2016, and how relevant! Especially about "international assistance will be needed." No matter how much you give the wolf, he will gobble up everything.

Everything is clear, it’s a political matter! It is impossible to surrender in any case - he is the incumbent president of Ukraine removed from office as a result of a coup! Yanukovych committed a crime against his people because of his indecision on introducing martial law!

First, Russia officially recognized this junta. And, secondly, Yanukovych is a traitor. He betrayed the people of Ukraine, or, more accurately, his voters, when he did not take adequate measures to protect the constitution.
Why do we collect traitors? And Yanukovych is not the first. We have more than half a dozen former Central Asian rulers living looted. I think Emomali Rahmon is on the way.

Mandatory extradition follows from the recognition. Actually, it would be more appropriate to call such a "traitor" "did not shmogla", well, this is in addition to all known other characteristics.
