Foreign visitors to Kyiv share a concern for the fate of democracy in Ukraine, the curator of the tent camp of supporters of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, MP Yuriy Odarchenko, has said.

“A lot of foreign visitors pass through the tent camp. They are all concerned. It seemed to me, because I’m here every day, that they are not so much worried and concerned about the results of football matches, but are concerned as a whole in this match of the struggle for Ukraine, for Democracy – whether Ukraine wins or loses,” he told reporters in the tent camp of Tymoshenko’s supporters in Kyiv.

He also said that the residents of the tent city were familiarizing visitors to the city with events that have occurred since Tymoshenko’s arrest, and that a special photo exhibition had been opened for this purpose.
