Anyone have a "before" picture of Victor Yushchenko?

Apparently he's been living in a bubble for the last two weeks and the first time he has heard about what happened to the guy was when I told him about it a few minutes ago

18. he use to be handsome and he looks horrible now

if you didn't know anything about him then it would be hard to believe that first pic was ever him.

without the poisoning i'm sure he would have looked better 20+ years from now than he looks right now with the poisoning.
