Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych has quit Kiev, opposition leader says

Kiev, Ukraine (CNN) -- Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych appeared to be gone from the capital Saturday, a day after he signed a landmark peace deal with the opposition aimed at bringing an end to days of bloody protests.

Change appeared to be gripping the country.

At the presidential residence in a Kiev suburb, groundskeepers and gate personnel kept watch over living quarters that were vacant.

Gone were the Ukrainian President's guards. And opposition leader Vitali Klitschko said Yanukovych had left town, a day after European Union leaders helped hammer out the peace agreement.

"Unfortunately, President Yanukovych who did not hear the people has withdrawn from his constitutional duties himself. And today he has already left the capital. Millions of citizens see only one option in the current situation -- it is calling the early presidential election," Klitschko said Saturday.

The President's residence, government buildings, protest gatherings and the central city were devoid of police and of security forces that had opened fire on protesters this week, dropping many dozens of them to the ground.

Track how the crisis in Ukraine unfolded

As a CNN crew drove to Yanukovych's residence, it passed checkpoints set up by protesters.

When the crew arrived, the gatekeepers said they were not allowing the general public onto the grounds, but they let journalists enter. The civil servants asked that the reporters treat his home as a crime scene.

Both of the President's two living quarter buildings were empty, the crew saw, as it inspected the grounds.

When the civil servants spoke of the home, they referred to it as being the "people's residence" once more.

At present, Yanukovych's whereabouts are unclear.

A senior U.S. State Department official said Yanukovych had left Kiev for Ukraine's second's largest city of Kharkiv, in the east, for a meeting after Friday's peace agreement. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, had been on the phone with Ukraine's foreign minister.

That's "not unusual," the official said.

Yanukovych has strong support in the East, where many ethnic Russians live. The raging opposition he faces was triggered by his loyalty to Russia and a decision in November to turn away from a deal with the European Union.

In many parts of Ukraine, people have toppled statues of former Russian communist leader Vladimir Lenin, a founder of the Soviet Union. The communist empire had included Ukraine, and the country gained independence after the USSR fell.

Resignation push

In the Rada, Ukraine's parliament, one of Yanukovych's chief opponents took the podium to call for him to be pushed from office as soon as possible and steamroll change.

The Rada passed a resolution to free Yulia Tymoshenko, the jailed former Prime Minister and a hero of the country's 2004 revolution. It isn't clear whether the move is legally binding.

Despite the vote, Tymoshenko is still at the Kharkiv prison hospital, her spokeswoman, Natalia Lysova, told CNN Saturday.

The case against her is widely considered in the West to have been politically motivated.

Klitschko, of the opposition UDAR party, urged lawmakers to enact a resolution urging the President immediately to resign and calling for early presidential elections to be held by May 25.

Key Yanukovych allies left office, and the presidential duties were handed off, until a new Cabinet is selected.

During the session, resignations were announced for the speaker of parliament and another leading presidential ally.

Hours later, parliament elected a new speaker, one of Yanukovych's most determined rivals, and gave him the duty of coordinating the executive office until a new Cabinet is in place.

Another opposition parliamentarian received the duties of acting Interior Minister.

The Rada sacked Yanukovych's prosecutor general.

Friday's deal

In Ukraine, neither protesters, opposition politicians nor the embattled President had gotten all of what they wanted from the deal after a week of bloodshed.

Enthusiasm was muted for the peace deal brokered among them a day before by the foreign ministers of Poland, Germany and France.

Hours before they signed the deal, Poland's Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski warned them not to expect perfection.

"All sides need to remember that compromise means getting less than 100%," he said in a message on Twitter.

The deal takes away many of Yanukovych's powers soon -- and his office completely, before the year is up. That wasn't soon enough for some.

Protesters who occupied Kiev's Maidan, or Independence Square, for months and watched many dozens of fellow demonstrators die this week had wanted him out of office.

If the President has fled, that wish may have already been fulfilled.

And on Friday, the Rada, rolled up its sleeves to implement the agreement.

First, they tackled the section designed to limit the President's power and roll back the Constitution to what it had been in 2004.

The deal also requires presidential elections "as soon as the new Constitution is adopted but no later than December 2014."

They also called for an investigation into this week's violence and handed police, per the agreement, more restrictions on the use of force. Over the weekend, protesters are also to turn in their illegal weapons and withdraw from streets and public buildings.

Grief, anger

Early Saturday, a large crowd gathered in the square for funeral ceremonies.

The night before, after the deal was announced, demonstrators held a procession to remember their dead that night. Pallbearers carried coffins over the heads of a throng of people holding up lights in their honor.

Pavel, a demonstrator who identified himself only by his first name, said he'd helped carry away people with bullet wounds Thursday, when protesters died en masse after shots rang out.

Pavel said on Friday that he won't forget his fallen compatriots, nor will he give up the fight.

"As long as (Yanukovych) is president," he said, "the movement will continue."

But other protesters showed some support for the deal. Its announcement before the crowd at Independence Square on Friday drew some cheers.

And when Klitschko, who has acted a spokesman for the movement, took the stage Friday, he got a notably frostier reception.

He contended that the government was trying to divide the protesters with the deal.

He walked off to a handful of jeers.

Discord's roots

The wave of unrest began in November, when Yanukovych scrapped a European Union trade deal and turned toward Russia.

The country is ethnically split, with many ethnic Russians living in the East. The rest of the country comprises mostly ethnic Ukrainians.

Russia, which has offered to lend money to cash-strapped Ukraine in a deal worth billions of dollars and to lower its gas prices, has put pressure on Yanukovych to crack down on demonstrators.

Western leaders, who have offered Ukraine a more long-term aid package requiring economic modernization, urged the President to show restraint, open up the government to the opposition and let the democratic process work out deep-seated political differences.

But the fight was also about corruption and control. The opposition called Yanukovych heavy-handed, with Klitschko and others saying protesters wouldn't leave Maidan until he resigned.

Tensions boiled over Tuesday, when security forces charged into a Kiev crowd with stun grenades, nightsticks and armored personnel carriers. At least 26 people -- protesters and police alike -- were killed.

Late Wednesday, the government announced a truce.

But on Thursday, protesters pursued police as they withdrew. Security forces fired back, sending dozens of protesters tumbling to the ground.

Then came the landmark agreement Friday.

Thailand in crisis: What's happening on the ground and why

(CNN) -- As the political situation in Thailand worsens with deaths on Bangkok's streets this week, CNN takes a look at the root causes of the protests, and what the latest developments might mean for the country's political future.

Who is protesting and why?

Unlike the 2010 protests, which saw red-shirted supporters of ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra turn out in force, this time around it is opponents of his younger sister Yingluck Shinawatra's government who are protesting in the capital.

As with previous protests, the country is largely divided between a younger, educated urban middle-class and a conservative class of poor rural voters, largely from the north of the country. It is the former group who have taken to the streets and are currently battling the police after months of deepening political division.

The protestors, led by Suthep Thaugsuban -- a deputy prime minister in the previous Abhisit Vejjajiva-led government -- rejected YIngluck's poll in early February and are calling for the creation of an unelected "people's council" headed by a premier appointed by Thailand's king.

Yingluck's prime ministership was largely stable until her party attempted to pass a controversial amnesty bill in November.

The bill would have nullified former Prime Minister Thaksin's corruption conviction and would have allowed him to return to the country. The policeman-turned-tycoon has been living in exile in a number of different locations, most recently Dubai, since he was removed in a bloodless coup in 2006.

He briefly returned to Thailand in 2008. Later that year, he was convicted by a Thai court of corruption and sentenced in absentia to two years in prison over a controversial land deal. Courts have also frozen billions of dollars of his assets, but he is believed to still have a great deal of money held elsewhere.

What is Thaksin's role in the current crisis?

While he technically plays no part in the current political situation, the deeply-divisive Thaksin is never far from the heart of Thai politics, communicating with supporters via social media and video messages. With his younger sister in power since 2011, his influence remains strong. Critics say Yingluck is Thaksin's proxy but she insists she has always been independent.

The current protests were sparked by attempts by her government to enact the amnesty law that opponents said was designed to protect him and others, facilitating his return to the country -- and ultimately, to an active role in Thai politics.

Why are Thai protests in the news so often?

The country has had a restive history since the dissolution of its absolute monarchy in 1932. There have been a dozen military coups d'etat over the years, most notably in 1947, and again in the 1970s, which led to the creation of a new constitution. The most recent military coup was in 2006, which led to the ouster of Thaksin.

Civilian rule was restored with a Thaksin-linked civilian government in charge but protests in 2008 -- including the blockade of the capital's airports -- eventually led to the creation of a coalition government. 2009-10 saw pro-Thaksin supporters, known as the red shirts, take to the streets and demand fresh elections, eventually leading to Yingluck's election -- which brings us to the current situation.

What impact did the February 2 election have?

Under pressure, Yingluck dissolved parliament and called for new elections at the beginning of February. These were disrupted by protestors, particularly in the capital and in the south of the country.

Ahead of the elections, Suthep -- the leader of the protests -- urged his supporters to boycott the poll and recently petitioned the Constitutional Court to annul the election. They were not successful and while the results are still in doubt, the country is being ruled by an interim government headed by Yingluck, but one that lacks absolute authority.

What role is the Thai king playing in all this?

Despite the turbulent nature of Thailand's democratic political scene the country is home to the world's longest-serving monarch. Bhumibol Adulyadej, aged 86, is universally revered in Thailand but prefers to remain ostensibly neutral in matters of government, although he called for national unity in his birthday speech in December.

What caused the latest flare-up?

After a period of relative calm -- and a feeling that appetite for the protests was dying down -- trouble has flared up again this week as police in the capital tried to reclaim official government sites occupied by protestors. Reacting to the attempted eviction, around 6,000 demonstrators were estimated to be on the streets of the city Tuesday.

An outbreak of violence that day saw five people -- including at least two protestors and a police office -- killed in central Bangkok. Following police action in which tear gas was fired in an attempt to disperse crowds of demonstrators in the streets, people among the protesters began firing guns at police, who responded with both rubber bullets and live fire.

15,000 police are said to have been mobilized in the latest operations. Seventy-three people -- both police officers and opposition supporters -- have been wounded in recent clashes.

Will the military step in?

Up until now the military has resisted calls from the protestors to intervene on their behalf, and it seems that its current leadership lacks the appetite for regime change. However, the country's army chief, General Prayuth Chan-ocha, has not ruled out the possibility that the military will intervene if violence on the streets of Bangkok worsens.

What's the story with the rice-pledging scheme?

The political crisis took on a new twist when a subsidy program that benefited rice farmers -- part of Yingluck's base -- was decried as corrupt by opposition leaders. The scheme was a centerpiece of Yingluck's election platform and has been beset with payment problems.

Yingluck criticized her opponents for politicizing the issue, but this week the country's National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) announced their decision to charge her with "dereliction of duty," which could have serious implications for her retention of the premiership.

She is expected to answer the charge on February 27, according to the Bangkok Post.

Is Thailand safe?

In the run-up to the elections several countries issued travel advisories for tourists and in the wake of this week's fatalities it is likely that these precautions will be used more frequently.

Reports of office closures in Bangkok on Tuesday and Wednesday have been received by CNN as the situation on the ground escalates.
