Viktor Victorious

Viktor Yushchenko took office today, and I was trying my best to follow the ceremony on Ukranian TV. CNN had an atrocious simultaneous translation which finally caused me give up and flip over to the Ukranian channel where at least I could see things better even if I was understanding less. During the tedious introduction of all the foreign dignitaries, Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski seemed (based on the spontaneous voice vote of applause and cheers) to be the most popular visitor.

Neeka's Backlog is not-quite-live blogging today's events, while Post Modern Clog promises pictures from the celebration later on tonight. Check them out.
