Asked if he felt for Yanukovich, Putin said "Oh, no.
I have absolutely different feelings." But he declined to publicly explain what those were.
He also refrained from commenting on what mistakes he saw in Yanukovich's actions, explaining that it would not be proper for him to do so.
At the same time Putin does not see any political future for Yanukovich, which he told the ousted Ukrainian president himself.
He added that Russia allowed him to come to its territory for humanitarian reasons, because if he remained in Ukraine he could have been summarily executed -
