- Alexander Motyl: Ukrainian leader Viktor Yanukovych's
brutality seems desperate
- Motyl: Violence has made protesters more resistant and
determined to fight
- Motyl: Party members are deserting Yanukovych, and
police are joining the opposition
- He says Vladimir Putin might not think it's worth his
while to prop up a doomed president

-- Viktor Yanukovych is probably doomed -- even if he does not yet know it. He
should just step down.
As the embattled Ukrainian President hides in the presidential
administration in central Kiev, medical authorities report from 70 to 100
demonstrators have been killed and hundreds wounded. His minister of internal
affairs has authorized police units to employ live ammunition. There are also fears that army
units are moving on Kiev, the capital city.
These appear to be the desperate measures of a dying regime.
The turning point took place on Tuesday when Yanukovych ordered
police units to storm the Maidan -- the area centered on Independence Square
that has been occupied by the democratic opposition since late November. Regime
forces killed at least 25 demonstrators in pitched street battles, set
buildings on fire and initiated a campaign of mass terror.
Alexander Motyl
Yanukovych hoped the opposition in Kiev would disperse. Instead,
the violence only spurred demonstrators to greater resistance and underscored
their determination to fight to the end. More important, the brutality has had
several important consequences.
First, democratic forces began seizing government buildings,
attacking and disarming police units, and rejecting central authority
throughout much of the country. As of this writing, Yanukovych has effectively
lost control of at least half of Ukraine -- mostly in the west and center --
and demonstrations and disturbances are constant in many parts of the
southeast, his power base.
Second, in many of the cities and provinces captured by the
revolutionaries, riot police and militia have thrown down their weapons and
joined the resistance.
In Kiev on Thursday, several scores of internal troops and their
commander surrendered to the opposition. The coercive forces represent
Yanukovych's last line of defense; such defections mean that his regime may
soon be exposed to assault by an enraged and increasingly armed population.
Third, dozens of prominent members of Yanukovych's Party of
Regions have left the party and repudiated his rule. Some are genuinely
appalled by the brutality of the regime; all sense which way the wind is
blowing and want to save their skins -- such as up to 30 pro-regime parliamentary
deputies who reputedly fled the country for Western Europe. Even Yanukovych's
appointee, the de facto mayor of Kiev, has turned against Yanukovych. The
regime's own power base is crumbling.

Expert:
No hope for Yanukovych in Ukraine
Ukraine:
A crisis with a human face
Fourth, Ukraine's oligarchs, who have so far supported or refused
to turn against Yanukovych, are now hedging their bets. Massive bloodshed and a
potential civil war is not in their interest, and the more things escalate, the
more likely will their dissatisfaction with Yanukovych turn into opposition.
Yanukovych faces a no-win situation.
If he backs down, the revolutionaries will sweep the country,
seize the presidential administration and in all likelihood arrest him. Given
the popular anger that his butchery has unleashed, it's not inconceivable that
his fate could be that of Romania's Communist dictator, Nicolae Ceausescu, in
1989.
If he doesn't back down, he can no longer hope for a return to the
stalemate that existed until February 18. The revolutionaries are no longer in
the mood for compromise with a regime that is willing to kill its own citizens
to stay in power.
Given these options, Yanukovych might decide that his only hope of
salvation lies with an escalation of violence. If the criminal bands of the
Berkut riot police -- in cahoots perhaps with select units of the internal troops
and army -- begin shooting indiscriminately and employing heavy weaponry, they
could certainly crush the Kiev demonstrators, although probably at the cost of
thousands of dead.
In light of Yanukovych's proven indifference to human life, this
option is, alas, not impossible.
But even massive bloodletting won't change the balance of forces.
Kiev's demonstrators will just go underground and initiate a guerrilla struggle
against the regime. More important, the rest of the country will remain in the
hands of the democratic opposition.
Its determination to oust Yanukovych and his criminal regime will
become implacable, while defections in the coercive forces and Party of Regions
could continue. Meanwhile, the economy is on the verge of collapse, social
unrest will likely break out in the southeastern rust belt, and the regime may
soon have no money to pay its defenders.
It could be that Yanukovych's days are numbered, and even Russian
President Vladimir Putin might not be able to help him. Putin could decide it is
not worth his while to invade Ukraine to prop up a doomed regime. And an
invasion of Ukraine could unleash a new cold war with the West and transform
Russia into a pariah state.
Yanukovych's friend, the mayor of Kharkiv, has suggested that he
evacuate to his city. That -- or flight to Russia -- may be Yanukovych's last
real hope.
