A brawl between a FEMEN activist - not topless this time incidentally - and a Ukranian MP occurred during a live TV show in Ukraine. The host asked the girl to comment on the protest group’s naked action during the presidential election in Russia.

The girl instead called on her countrymen to renew protest actions against Ukrainian authorities, a suggestion which made the parliamentary deputy from the ruling party call her a “prostitute”.

However the blonde was no shrinking violet. Rather she is an experienced protester. She assaulted the statesman, who argued she is a “mentally-ill drunk slut” who should get of the studio as she “dishonors Ukraine”. As the host tried to calm the polemic down, the girl managed however to spit at the deputy’s face and was finally shown out the studio by security.

The latest scandalous action by FEMEN was performed in Moscow during Sunday’s presidential election. Three young women entered the polling station where Vladimir Putin had cast his ballot 20 minutes earlier. They bared their chests, which were emblazoned with anti-Putin messages, chanted obscene slogans and almost brought the voting to a halt. The activists were detained by police and remain in custody in Russia.

Ukrainian protest group FEMEN is known for its politically-loaded displays, mostly because the women prefer to strip to the waist to gain attention. They act topless while fighting for the rights of oppressed women in particular, as well as against Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko, Russia-Ukraine gas deals, members of the Davos Economic Forum and for the rights of humanity as a whole.

"How do you know she is not - is she your girlfriend or wife perhaps?" As you said I dont know; neither do you or proven by the minister. At the very least no one has supplied proof she is. In my country (Canada) such an unproven comment is a criminal offense subject to financial penalties.  I perhaps have erroneouslly presumed that people are are innocent until proven guilty in your country as in mine; and instead are guilty until they prove their own innocence like the backward French laws require. Perhap s your country isnt as democratic and free as I presumed it to be.

It doesnt matter what anyone could possiblly know. UNLESS they can supply proof they are liable for deflamation. I have only sued once in my life when I successfully won custody of my son, when his mother and I separated. I see that you post/ramble on; on more than one subject on RT. So I expect that makes you the (un)professional propagandaist.  Just as you were challenged on in the other post I read; are you a paid blabber mouth or just hoping to make conversation with someone.

Eurasian ; I never said the judge should allow her to beat him up (after the fact in court). I said she is entitled to financial compensation for his slanderous remark (in public). She should sue him financial for a LARGE amount of cash, 50,000-250,000 US dollars. He needs and deserves to be held accountable for his mouth.  He was not in an asse mbly of liars... errr parliment etc, so he isnt entitled to claim he was/is allowed to make such a comment with impunity. I have spent my 61 years growing up in a society that  "attempts" to treat women equally instead of continueing to try and hold them down/back; because of emotionally weak and immature men are afraid they will be proven inferior to many women. ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ _ re: Ken, How do you know she is not - is she your girlfriend or wife perhaps? And what if she really is a prostitute and he knows that for a fact? Is that an offence in the west if they are called what they really are, and does that give them the right to sue for being called what they are? And if so than you admit yourself your western societies in the end have become prostitutes itself.Or you try to tell us for those 61 years you have become a master of provocations making money out of false lawsuits?
