EU Enlargement Czar Meets Divisive #Ukraine Opposition Leader - Real Time Brussels - WSJ @NaftaliBendavid

EU Enlargement Czar Meets Divisive Ukraine Opposition Leader - Real Time Brussels - WSJ:

"When Stefan Füle, the European commissioner for enlargement and European neighborhoods, emerged Thursday to talk to reporters about his meetings with Ukrainian opposition leaders, he was joined by three politicians.

The first was Arseniy Yatsenyuk, leader of the biggest opposition bloc. The second was Vitali Klitschko, a boxing champion and rising political star.

The third was Oleh Tiahnybok, leader of the Svoboda Party, which has been accused of antisemitism and homophobia. Some may have considered this a surprising choice for an event meant to showcase Ukraine’s prospects for joining the European family."
