The liberal heritage of the Yeltsin era. Now such already isn't present. You, Estonians, as always lag behind reality
It's not "heritage" and it's still present, not just in Russia, but I have seen plenty of such reality in the US and in heart of Europe like Netherlands as example.
The problem when people post this in a topic about Ukraine they obviously trying too express their "superiority" to other nations when in fact they express nothing but their stupidity and a variety of complexes like "small country barely visible on a map with no cultural heritage whatsoever vs an empire with enormous world class cultural heritage".
"Klyan was shot in the stomach while accompanying a group of soldiers' mothers on their way by bus to a Ukrainian military unit "to meet their sons and take them home," Channel One said, apparently meaning that the women wanted the troops to withdraw and stop fighting the separatists."
Yes, that's precisely what it was - they are getting too many coffins in West Ukraine, ( yes, I feel for their mothers too,) so the protests of mothers became quite common thing in different regions.
And that's whom Ukrainian army was shooting at, not just journalists.
( Here you see the footage of what's going on on that bus, with a driver (wounded as well) trying to do the best under the circumstances.)

There's a very unclear situation. It seems that this bus was in the early convoys fighters. The rebels thought that Ukrainian military unit was ready to surrender, but the Ukrainian military opened fire. In the air and on the road before the bus. The bus drove off to some distance, people went out for a smoke and discuss the situation. At this time, the Ukrainian army shot a flare shell and opened fire on the passengers. Difficult situation, it seems that the rebels were misinformed about the intentions of the military to surrender.

Sorry I don't understand it.
Please write in Russian ( actually the whole thing, ) then I'll translate it.
I'd like to know what happened there.
