Description | KIEV, Ukraine - Former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who came to symbolize Ukraine's Orange Revolution with her fiery speeches and chic style, signaled in an emotional, televised address Friday that she is moving into the opposition to President Viktor Yushchenko, her comrade in arms in last year's uprising.
