Quote of the day
“English fans need to know that if they try to mess with Ukrainian women then we will try to mess with them. The sex industry exploits women who are so poor and often uneducated. That is why we are going to try to attack every match.”
Inna Shevchenko, a member of Femen, the women's group that stages topless protests against men who come to Ukraine for sex tourism.

Slowly but surely, our lives, our surroundings, our media space and – most likely – our minds are being inundated with the notion that violation of laws, particularly if it’s organized and happens under a watchful eye and in a group, is no longer a crime. Rather, it’s seen as something positive, nice, useful and fun. Feb 22 at 15:39 | Yaroslav Pylynskiy |

Ukraine continues to discuss prices for gas and the volume that should be purchased from Russia. In turn, Russia -- through the state-run Gazprom -- makes demands on its neighbor, while threatening to divert more supplies to its Nord Stream line, with the prospect of the South Stream starting up in the near future.

If anyone is baffled by sharp alterations in the shape of Ukraine’s governance -- which over the past 20 years of independence have taken the country from the post-Soviet chaos into the paws of the present basically anti-Ukrainian regime of the Party of Regions – one needs to look at the genesis and the pigment of that party.

The good news is that President Viktor Yanukovych has finally gotten around to firing some of the deadbeats in his Cabinet. The bad news is that he’s replaced them with two individuals with absolutely no connection to or roots in Ukraine. The worse news is that they’ve been placed in charge of the “power” agencies, the Ministry of Defense and the Security Service (SBU). And, lest you think you can now take a breath, the worst news is that both guys have a record of violence as long as Yanukovych’s security entourage. It started on February 3rd, when Yanukovych made Igor Kalinin the head of the SBU. Then, on February 8th, he made Dmitri Salamatin minister of defense. Read the story here.

As President Viktor Yanukovych’s regime consolidates its dictatorial hold on the country, intensifies its political repression of the opposition, continues to assault the Ukrainian language and culture while selling out the country’s sovereignty to Moscow, it is time to re-examine our own relations with Ukraine.

The global community is focused on Ukraine’s policies of centralization of control and the country’s East versus West divisionary tactics. Education is prime territory for this process. The drafts of a law on higher education proposed a year ago and again in December provide a tangible example of conflicting world views. Feb 15 at 17:17 | Marta Farion |
