The vintage cars, the private restaurant, the golf course. Bemused Ukrainians didn't quite seem to know what to make of it all, as they wandered around the plush private residence of their deposed president, Viktor Yanukovych, a few days ago. He's fled the capital, Kiev, of course. The big question now: has the wealth he and his allies built during their time in power...fled the country with him? There are claims that corrupt Ukrainian officials and business people have already laundered funds through European countries, including Britain. Robert Barrington is executive director of Transparency International, which campaigns against corruption. We asked him how much money was missing.
