Wall Street Journal: Gadhafi’s nurse returns home, stays silent

The personal nurse of embattled Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi kept her silence Monday after returning home to Ukraine from the side of a man she apparently called "Papa." Galyna Kolotnytska, described in a diplomatic cable published by WikiLeaks as a "voluptuous blonde" who "travel[s] everywhere" with Col. Gadhafi, spent her first full day back in Ukraine holed up in her apartment in Brovary, a small town near Kiev, refusing to speak with the roughly 30 reporters swarming outside her modest building. She arrived in Kiev on a flight with around 185 evacuees from Tripoli early Sunday. Vladislav Voloshyn, a journalist who was on the flight working for a publication of Ukraine's Ministry of Defense, said she wouldn't answer his questions, but appeared relaxed and defiant in support of her increasingly isolated former boss. "Papa is the best!" he said she called out in Russian while on board, apparently referring to Col. Gadhafi. Read the story here.
