Higgins and Kramer's account of the events of February 20-21, 2014, in Kiev and Lviv, which throw light on what really happened in Ukraine
02/23/2014
This excellent work of reporting by NYT Andrew Higgins and Andrew Kramer throws new light on the events. It now appears that the events in the Square in Kiev and the movement of weapons from an Interior Ministry depot in Lviv to Kiev may have been what led to the final realization by the police and deputy interior minister that without a police withdrawal the country was headed into civil war. Yanukovych was unable to resign to the end. The peace agreement he signed came as a result of a Putin call to Yanukovych to sign and set a date for elections, and the diplomatic effort may not have achieved this outcome by itself as implied in a WSJ report by Benoit, Norman and Fidler, 2/22/2014.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
