A member of the current coalition in western Ukraine lead the sharpshooters

and ordered them to shoot, during the most violent days of the revolt. A headline in belgian MSM (in dutch) and the interpretation of another leaked phonecall between the estonian FM Urmas Paet and EU rep for foreign affairs Catherine Ashton. Mr. Paet expresses deep concern about the unwillingness of the current coalition to investigate. He has confirmed the veracity of the conversation, but says he "only reiterated what he had heard the day before in Kiev".

Warning: graphic pictures in the video. On edit: part about sharpshooters starts 8.25 in.
