WNU,
Did you notice how close Poroshenko's security detail was to him. They're spooked about something.
James ... there are a lot of Ukrainians who are upset with what has happened .... and this anger and rage is everywhere and on all sides. Even in my case .... there are moments where I feel a great deal of anger on how stupid all of these leaders have been in creating a crisis and a civil war that should never have happened .... and I am esepcially and personally upset with Poroshenko who had the opportunity when he was elected to defuse everything .... but choose a war strategy instead.
So yes .... I have noticed how detailed his security is right now .... and I also know that anyone and everyone who approaches him and/or meets him is first screened, vetted, and body checked.
