12:10 pm
think even the protesters cannot say why they're demonstrating unlike the demonstrators in kiev most of the more than four million people who live in the country's most populous region don't believe ukraine's future lies in europe losing off. russian market is a poor theme for this region so that is the main reason why. people. don't. want to injure. european association protesters complain the kids riot has a wasting time on the streets while it's the country's east that keeps the economy alive and if you crane was to join europe now its factories would be turned into scrap people here in vision a different future to the antigovernment protests what they want is a quick end to the demonstration and a deal to join the russian customs union this they say will give them the stability and security that the key of protests are threatening to unravel policia r.t.

state of the art navigation systems to russia's next industrial revolution technology update is here to guide you in a couple of minutes. another whistle blower is facing a lot of heat including a wave of death threats but what did she discover some sort of dark secret cia plans or some other plot for a new war of luxury no she exposed something far more dangerous and important to the zombies on their couches the university of north carolina athletes are mentally unfit for college and even high school mary willing come blew the whistle on the fact that between eight and ten percent of the school's football and basketball players read of the fourth grade level and many others are sub college level she
