I instantly knew it was Masses.
I had not seen those photos, thank you. Terrible times there, one day it will be peaceful. The current gov in Ukraine is even worse than the one before, much worse. And from what I have read (as much as I can without having it take over my life), the US is greatly to blame.
Interesting is they want to be known as a “state” of Ukraine, a Republic separate from Russia yet having control of their “state government” within Ukraine. They do not want the old guard Oligarchs stealing from them as in the past and what they are also fighting.
The Ukraine Gov. is under the control of the US/EU oligarchs to make certain Ukraine remains a debtor country thus controlling their resources as well and what they are doing.....but the Oligarchs in their Gov. are continuing to control the flow of revenue into their own pockets. None in authority give a rats butt what happens to the people of Kiev...and there will always be high corruption in Ukraine....it's not going to change, just differing directions of where the revenues flow 'away from' benefiting the people....while the foreign companies rape the country as they do all those who are debtor nations..
