Ukrainian news...is never boring.
Regular observers can count on outrageous FEMEN topless activists...flash-mobbing and flashing their breasts for various causes...and pugnacious ex-PM Yuila Tymoshenko standing-up to her equally stubborn opponent President Viktor Yanukovich.
Yesterday...an uber-violent brawl broke-out in its parliament...sending the deputy opposition leader and another MP to the hospital.
