The order was given for the army to mobilize and attack Maidan using whatever force is necessary. Government spokesmen looked very happy to be announcing this news on TV.
3 hours later the army across the country remain in their barracks and the head of the army has been fired for failing to carry out the Presidential order to attack the very people they have sworn an oath to defend - the Ukrainian people.
Maybe Ukrainian soldiers do not want to go to war with unarmed Ukrainian citizens.
We live another day perhaps but is this a hint in Yanukovich's aura of power being broken.
If the army does not obey him ... who next?
