LONDON — A couple hundred people — Ukrainians, Russians and others — joined a demonstration outside the Russian Embassy in London March 1 to demand the release of Nadiya Savchenko, Ukrainian helicopter pilot imprisoned in Russia, and to demand prosecution of those who killed Boris Nemtsov, a Russian opposition politician shot down in Moscow two days earlier.
“It’s important to show the world is not against ordinary Russians. We have a common enemy,” said Nadia Pylypchuk. She is part of the London Euromaidan group that has organized protests and events in support of the massive popular uprising in Ukraine last year and in defense of Ukrainian sovereignty. |
