Questionable Parallels Between Ukraine's 'Je Suis Volnovakha' and 'Je Suis Charlie'

Volodymyr Yermolenko of Internews Ukraine and France 24 correspondent Gulliver Cragg discuss the "Je suis Volnovakha" campaign in Ukraine.

On Sunday, January 18, peace marches occurred across Ukraine calling for an end to the conflict in the country's east. Protesters carried signs with the slogan "Je Suis Volnovakha" a rehashing of the "Je suis Charlie" phrase that was coined in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo shootings.

In Volnovakha, Ukraine, a passenger bus full of civilians was allegedly shot by separatists killing eleven inside.

The discussion was moderated by Hromadske International co-hosts Nataliya Gumenyuk and Ian Bateson and took place on January 18, 2015.
