On the east side of Ukraine in the town of Slavainsk , there is an investigation going on as to whom massacred a Pro-Russian roadblock (well.. it’s not really a mystery) early Sunday morning. A Pro-Russian leader said that three or four cars approached the roadblock, and a shooting happened. It is said that six people died in the shooting, although it wasn’t confirmed to CNN that, that was the final body count. After the shooting, two cars took off to the Kharkiv region, while the other two were set on fire. Pro-Russian leaders did, however, obtain a body of one of the alleged assailants and displayed it outside of state Security. Ukrainian Nationalists, called the ‘Right Sector’, denied that any of its supporters were in the area at the time of the shooting. Although violence was set aside in the midst of Easter Sunday, it is still a mystery as to whom acted against the non-violent pact.
With this whole situation, Vice President Joe Biden is supposed to visit Kiev this week and meet up with different leaders in the Ukraine, hoping to discuss a peaceful compromise.
