Yanukovich should have stayed. Nobody forced him to left. He fled his fears. But he also fled an agreement that his sponsors didn't approve of or initial.

In so doing, he violated the agreement. Once by not signing the legislation he agreed to sign when it was passed--he'd already packed up and left.
