KRAKOVETS, Ukraine – Aggressive government supporters, known as “titushki,” came to the Krakovets checkpoint on the Polish-Ukrainian border on Sept. 9 to protest against ex-Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili’s planned arrival in Ukraine on Sept. 10.
The move followed the establishment of a protest tent camp by Saakashvili supporters at Krakovets on Sept. 9. His supporters, who say the “titushki” will be used for provocations, installed dozens of tents.
