Ok....

So the former head of state security... Yakimenko knew that Nalivaychenko was working witht he CIA, giving over secret information etc....

and his response was to do absolutely nothing with that information, he didn't arrest him, accuse him, limit the SBU's power... didn't even say anything, until after he gets forced out of power.

This is the arguement you are making.

Or did he not find out about this until after he got pushed out of power?

He's referring to the period when Nalivaychenko was the head of SBU, i.e. during Yuschenko presedential term, afair he didn't even work at SBU during that time. His carrier begun just after Yanukovich came into power, Yakimenko was in charge of SBU for like two weeks or smth.

2 weeks?   More like 54+ weeks

Outside which... I'm pretty sure spying and sabotaging your own government would be a crime that would have a statute of limitations greater then 3 years.

A year, I think is long enough time to clear out a day to arrest someone for sabatoging your governments intellegence agency.

Meanwhile, Yanukovich hs been president for 4 years.

So the question remains.

So 4 years, 3 SBU chiefs... and there isn't any sign of it, or complaint until after they get removed from power?
