Title: Ukraine crisis: Viktor Yanukovych leaves Kiev for support base
Post by: LambChop on February 22, 2014, 01:50:27 am
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has flown out of Kiev to visit Ukraine's second largest city Kharkiv, considered his eastern political base.
A US official said the embattled president made the trip to attend a meeting. Two key allies, parliamentary speaker Volodomyr Rybak and presidential administration chief Andrei Kluyev, were also reported to be on board the aircraft.

Amen!

The Ukrainian people have been through so much.  The older ones with the brutal oppression of Communism, and the younger with the struggles of being free after 70 years of slavery (It's not easy!).

I share your prayer that God would protect them, and allow them to achieve their goal of being a free people.

(And I wish we had a President who cared about them, like President Bush did........)

This is 1956 Budapest, Hungary and Czechoslovakia all over again.

Hell.....this is what started World War I.

I pray God will protect them, because Obama sure won't...

Hell Chieftain, I still think he and his administration had something to do with this.  Wouldn't be the first time our government has gone in and riled the masses, just to sit back and watch it explode.  All those people dead, injured.  And their struggles are just beginning.

We give out an enormous amount of money in the Middle East, what will Obama donate to this cause except a "you better not" BS line?

Shameful.
