The BBC’s David Stern explains why Ukrainian politician Vitaly Zhuravsky was thrown into a bin by a mob. He told Ukrainian TV he needs to recover “morally, physically and psychologically” after the incident. Footage on Tuesday showed Vitaly Zhuravsky, Economic Development party deputy and former adviser to ousted Ukrainian President Yanukovich, being held down by a mob outside parliament. Mr Zhuravsky authored a bill in January severely tightening restrictions on anti-government protesters.
