Who is Viktor Yanukovych, the former Ukrainian president Putin reportedly wants to put back in power?

Who is Viktor Yanukovych?
The 72-year-old Yanukovych was Ukraine's president from 2010 until he was ousted in February 2014 following widespread protests over his decision to reject the country's agreement to align itself more closely with the European Union, with an eye toward future membership in the bloc, and instead pursue a Russian financial bailout package and tighter ties to Moscow.

Many Ukrainians and many international civil society groups had also criticized Yanukovych for running a corrupt administration, including charges that he embezzled funds from the government. (Yanukovych has denied he misappropriated government money.) He favored a small cabal of wealthy Ukrainian business tycoons, including his own son, Oleksandr Yanukovych, and members of his extended family. He also amassed a large personal fortune.
