Poroshenko Elected Ukraine President
Putin Dodges Promise To 'Respect' Results
Ukraine’s 35.5 million voters gave Petro Poroshenko,
the so-called Chocolate King, a rousing 56 percent of the votes from 21
candidates on the ballot. He will be Ukraine’s fifth president. These figures
are based on two separate national exit polls. Two days before the election,
Vladimir Putin publicly backtracked on his pledge to honor the results of the
election. In the days and weeks that follow, it will become evident that he
never meant to recognize the results of the Ukraine presidential election.
Let’s see how the world reacts.
