Ukrainian Parliment Says Vote Failed to Reflect Will of Voters

KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine's parliament ruled on Saturday that a contested presidential run-off vote handing victory to Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich was invalid and failed to reflect the will of voters.
Parliament passed by large majorities two points of a resolution saying the Nov. 21 poll was invalid, subject to many irregularities and failed to reflect voters' intentions.
Liberal challenger Viktor Yushchenko, backed by large demonstrations in Ukrainian cities, has refused to acknowledge the official count giving Yanukovich victory.
The Ukraine Supreme Court is still to rule on Yushchanko's appeal, and Yanukovich cannot be inaugurated until that appeal is decided. The decision by Parliment to declare the election invalid is not binding without the endorsement of outgoing president Leonid Kuchma.
This is speeding toward a total scrapping of the national election. What brave times we live in on the other side of the globe, at least.
