Ukraine on May 5, 2014

A released pro-Russian supporter is welcomed by participants of a rally as he and others are released from a policy building in Odessa, Ukraine, on Sunday.

Ukraine is getting worse and I continue to assign responsibility to what the media are calling "the pro-Russian separatists" (pRs).

After the former leader of Ukraine left (fled with a fortune) for Russia, the people who took over pretty quickly said there would be new elections on May 15.

There was no reason for the violence.  None whatsoever.

No matter what else has happened or been said...there was no need for the violence.

That's why I'm against the pRs.  And because Putin wants to help them, that's why I think Putin is wrong.
