Viktor Yanukovich will visit Moscow as Ukraine's new president during the first 10 days of March, the Kremlin said on Saturday.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev held a telephone conversation with President-elect Yanukovich and congratulated him on his "complete and final, legitimate and internationally recognised victory in Ukraine's presidential election", the Kremlin said in a statement. "Medvedev and Yanukovich ... agreed to conduct in the near future, during the first 10 days of March, the visit of Ukraine's president to Russia."
