Questioning “FEMEN”
On Tuesday, April 10 – in the midst of the Eastern Christian Holy Week leading up to Easter – five members of the women’s group FEMEN suspended a seven-meter-long banner reading “Stop” from the belfry of Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kyiv. The messagesignified their opposition to draft law No. 10170, which would overturn Ukraine’s rather permissive law on abortion and substitute a more restrictive one. The letter “t” in the English word “Stop” was written in the form of an Eastern Christian cross.

Beginning May 1 RISU’s English-version has no funding. Please support us now
Our goal is USD 10,000 per year. This is enough to give us the chance to translate and edit news, interviews, and analytical articles, form reference materials on different church and religious organizations in Ukraine, monitor other news sources, and prepare our own articles. This is enough to sustain our present activity but not enough to fulfill our plans of future growth.
