2015-03-31 Pepe reporting from rebel East Ukraine
=========================
Stasia lays a flower on the ground where her squad was under heavy fire by Kiev's goons last summer, with one dead and twenty wounded out of 35. She was hit byshrapnel, but survived. I mention it in my Asia Times "Howling" column.
The pic is by my friend and force of nature Janus Putkonen - we were on this trip together, along with Vanya and two kick-ass TV crews from Serbia and Slovenia.
Here's one of the reports part of the outstanding coverage by Janus, in Finnish:
The trip was made possible by German-based media project Europa Objektiv and their first class team. Yes, there ARE a lot of people across Europe with a conscience - and they do care about the people of Donbass. They are not, obviously, political "leaders".
