Unrest in the Ukraine


Eastern Orthodox clergy separate anti-government protestors from government forces in Kiev in Ukraine. AP's Sergei Grit's remarkable photo, positively medieval in its imagery, looks like it could be an outtake from Andrei Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrei_Rublev_(film) Only the bloody aftermath, as police violently broke up what was described as a peaceful
Protest, showed that this was Real Life, not Art. Story in the NY Times which published this front page photo on the protest and aftermath here http://nyti.ms/1cc8Xh1
