1945 GMT: Donetsk has seen large protests today by both pro-Maidan and pro-Russian protesters. The two groups clashed violently, with many of the Maidan supporters being beaten and fleeing. The last who remained were taken into police vans and driven off for the own safety.
According to Ukrainskaya Pravda, there were around 5000 demonstrators faced by around 2000 pro-Russian activists. The paper reports pro-Russian protesters grabbing their victims one by one, spraying (what we assume to be tear) gas in their eyes, beating and spitting on them. The
The pro-Russian demonstrators stormed the offices of the Regional Administration, recapturing it having been evicted earlier in the week. They were led by the self-proclaimed ‘People’s Governor’ of Kharkiv, Pavel Gubarev.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said a third envoy would be sent to Ukraine. The announcement came hours after reports of unidentified armed men ordered a UN emissary to exit Crimea on Wednesday.
“I have decided to dispatch the Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights, Mr. Ivan Simonovic, to Ukraine to visit Kiev and the eastern part of Ukraine, including Crimea, to see and monitor the human rights situation there,” Ban said.
Simonovic is expected to travel to Crimea over the weekend.

The page invited readers to make a “contribution to the battle for Ukraine” by enlisting as volunteers and traveling to the “main centers of resistance” in the Russian-speaking eastern city of Donetsk and the central city of Kharkiv, or to the southern sea port of Odessa.
The announcement did not specify what the “resistance” would constitute, but instructed potential volunteers to be “sharp and collected, remember that people are busy, and there is no need for extra questions.”
“Remember — you are an ordinary tourist, do not take anything extraneous with you,” the announcement added.

Of course there is another possibility.
She is employed / paid for by the CIA to make Russia look bad.
Since she is soooo bad, this is what I would lean towards.
Of course, she could just be having her 15 minutes of fame.
See, there are lots of available explanations.

Thanks for the summary but there is a lot more to it behind the scenes. For example
Now the parliament is sitting there with no president so they take the next step they vote to appoint one temporarily until thay can hold a national election.
That sounds really good and democratic. Truth seems to be that they hauled an inmate out of prison, who was not a member of Parliament and made him the acting President.
That should show you quite clearly that this is a dog and pony show via the CIA and cohorts.

Oleksandr Turchynov was born in Dnipropetrovsk. He graduated from the Dnipropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute in 1986, after which he worked at Kryvorizhstal, a large Ukrainian steel producer.[13] From 1987 to 1990, he served as head of the agitation and propaganda division of the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Komsomol (Communist Youth League) Committee, which was led by Serhiy Tihipko.[13]
In February 2006 state prosecutors opened a criminal case against Turchynov and his SBU deputy Andriy Kozhemyakin for destroying a file about FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitive, organized crime boss Semyon Mogilevich, from the SBU archive. The case was dismissed four months later.[24] WikiLeaks documents mention Turchynov, then head of Ukraine's SBU, as having destroyed documents implicating Yulia Tymoshenko's alleged connections to Mogilevich.[25]
As i understood it and correct me if im wrong but he was accused of being an accomplice in the murder of a judge. But there was no evidence for his conviction and even the parlaiment decided to release him. His only crime appeared to be speaking out and payed for it by spending years in jail.

Mandela has nothing to do with this.

Obviously he was convicted by Ukraine Justice System who, just as obviously, had enough evidence to put him away. This was a coupe against a democratically elected President by forces of the West / NATO.
What, in the entire Nation, they could not find a better candidate than a convict? Come on, the man has a power base, they wanted and needed his power base to pull this off. Now the situation is going belly up and the truth is slowly emerging.
The whole situation sucks.
