[quote]"The United States expresses its disgust with the decision of Ukrainian authorities to meet the peaceful protest in Kiev's Maidan Square with riot police, bulldozers, and batons, rather than with respect for democratic rights and human dignity," he said.[/quote]
This is a guy from a country that sprays pepper spray at students sat down, fire's tear gas into crowds and using rubber bullets and beating protesters.
I think the government in the USA needs to sort themselves about before preaching to another country on how to behave.
(The bulldozer is a bit extreme though and yes I am aware the UK uses horses but not to slam into massive crowds.)
What do you think? Should the US government keep it's trap shut and leave this between Russia, Ukraine and the EU?

John Kerry never ordered those things done to anyone. I don't like the guy, but you can't blame him for anything on protesters being pepper sprayed. If a law enforcement agency needed to disperse protesters and they resisted, they are fully warned of the consequences. So if they remain and get pepper sprayed or tear gassed, they're at fault for staying. No way this is the same as what is going on in the Ukraine.
