Ukraine and Russia Pledge to Build Stronger Relationship

In his first visit to Moscow since winning the presidency of the Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych met with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and the two leaders pledged to end tensions between their countries and build a stronger relationship.

Yanukovych represents a break from the Ukraine’s previous Pro-Western government, a government that was often at odds with Russia on a number of policies.

During Yanukovych’s campaign he vowed to strengthen ties with Russia while keeping a solid relationship with the West. His victory over Yulia Tymoshenko in February was a clear sign that the Ukrainian people wanted the same.

On Friday Yanukovych made his intentions known saying his plan was to open a “new page” with Russia. That feeling was echoed by Medvedev who said he hoped the “black streak” in their relationship was over.

That “black streak” is often tied to gas supplies and it is the hope of the Ukrainian people that Yanukovych can broker lower prices for gas.
