Russia sees no reason to hand Viktor Yanukovych over to Ukraine,
Russian Federation (RF) Prosecutor General Yury Chaika stated.

“According to our data, he has not committed any crime, and therefore
there is no basis for his extradition,” Chaika told Interfax news
agency.

He added that, just as before, Russia considers Yanukovych to be the
legitimate President of Ukraine.

“Whereas today’s authorities in Kiev have come [to power] as a result
of a military coup; I say this as a jurist,” the RF attorney general
stated, in particular.
