"I completely support Yanukovych's wish to give testimony along with the so-called face-to-face interrogation and it will be my pleasure to personally arrange it for him in Ukraine's capital. As soon as Yanukovych takes courage to be liable before the Ukrainian people for all he has done, he will have the face-to-face interrogation and receive a fair trial, and even a fair verdict," Lutsenko said at a joint briefing with Director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine Artem Sytnyk in Kyiv on Thursday.
"Yanukovych has turned to be a weak person, a traitor, who usurped power, plundered the country, destroyed the armed forces and security forces of Ukraine. In the end, he fled to a neighboring state, and called for armed aggression against Ukraine from there," Lutsenko added.
