I ahve been watching the news on the protest then saw a name I have saw before,Vitali Klitschko.
I guess he is the opposition leader and I know he is a kite boarder I believe it was Epics he rode.
This isnt to start drama just thought it was wild.

he is a very brave man, big respect for what he is doing there!
Yes, he is the opposition leader with his party Udar.
I wish him all the luck he needs, and hopefully this drama will be over soon.
I do know that he really wants to go kiting, but will not go until things changed in the Ukraine.
Fingers crossed Vitali!

Hey where did my post go??
The 'pussy' reference was purely in relation to him being a heavyweight champ nothing to do with what's going on in Ukraine as i know nothing about that.

Sure, but I just read his name in this topic! And won't let anyone talk bad about a guy who risks his life to make things better for his country!

Do you know this for fact?
Between the media, protestors and sitting government it is pretty difficult to say for sure who is trying to do what.... at least from where I am standing I would be afraid to throw my support behind anyone atm.

I know why is doing it...he is a friend of mine.
And I just met another friend and business partner from him who had to run out of the country because Janukowitsch tries to put all friends and business partners from the opposition into jail.
Janukowitsch is a criminal and robs the country.

Fair enough, was only messing about being sarcastic.
