NOS Teletekst reports that 30 Dutch Ukrainians have been protesting in front of the Ukrainian embassy in The Hague. Some reportedly carried signs saying “Hands off, Putin!”.

According to the same report Schr?der is convinced that there has been ‘mass polling fraud’ and Putin told the West ‘not to meddle with Ukraine’.

I won’t be able to check on protests myself, but I intend to go out and get some orange shirts to wear in solidarity.

Thanks for keeping us all informed.

When all this is over maybe a good picture of the masses in Kiev would make a nice addition to the excellent collection of European scenes you use for the big AFOE banner.

The URL above points to Poland’s Gazeta Wyborcza. Several hundred Poles along with very high-profile politicians formed a line in orange from the Polish Interior Ministry to the Ukrainian Embassy.

Good work. Blogger’s gone completely tits up now, so I don’t know when I can next get an update. Have you heard any confirmation about Viktor’s last post? - “According to radio news (Radio Era), the Ukrainian police that surrounds the Presidential Administration has told the demonstrators that the building is full of Russian Spetsnaz who are dressed into ukrainian uniform and were ordered to kill demonstrators if they enter the bulding.”
