These topless must know the gas in question belongs to Russia and not to Ukraine. Perhaps not being nice to the U.S and NATO- because these forces are working against Russia- can help things a bit. These stupid women and the rest of the anti-Russian Ukrainians both inside Ukraine but most of all in the West should ask the U.S to provide gas to Ukraine.

I would like to know why these girls don't protest, for example,  in nigeria (where locals don't ever see any oil incoming) or in saudi arabia (where women0s rights are regularly violated)...

There's no point to this..

The only place you see this silly story is on RT.

RT the news station with top news stories then they belittle themselfs with childish rubbish if your stuck for stories why not see how many have really died from the cold this year around Europe, How many Migrants?, How many old people?, how is the price of gas and oil effecting the profits of the power companies.

But i suppose that would take real Journalists not just someone that trolls the internet looking for stories calling themselfs...  Ivana Toppof.

They [the oranges] wouldn’t miss the chance instructed by their western masters to rock the boat, now would they?

Okay sweethearts, let me tell you now what happened when Ukraine played the nasty game with the west in order dump the prices of the Russian gas and for that reason Russia turned down the crane; in Romania and Bulgaria 29 people died frozen to death that winter… in the both countries massive demonstrations before the Ukrainian embassies, and not the Russian, with banners CRIMINALS. But those Ukrainian “orange revolution” players stole enough gas from the pipes - which they even rejected to pay, and the aside stored reserves, not to feel the shortage while last for few or several months.

But soon when the three streams start to operate fully functional they may as well found themselves there is actually no “Russian gas yoke” to protest for, than we will see them would they go around topless.

Say, what's wrong with showing the ladies' breast in those pictures? They chose to go topless in public with the intent of people seeing their bountiful bosom... and all the while learning of their demands...  Then, why would you censor that? Is woman's breast offensive to people? I do not think so... it is something beautiful, much sought after by men... So please, don't be so childishly prudish and let us see the whole picture, will you? ;)

 I hope the Russian police are kinder to these girls than their Swiss counterparts. They probably will be , Russians are more manly than the neutered neutral Swiss.

Eurasian Many thanks for your insights. The Ukrainian Diaspora so anti-Russian it is sickening ( not all of them many the majority of them). Russia needs to deal with this anti-Russian mafia classes.

Never really understood my countries protesting ways.... sending naked women everywhere. On the other hand I feel proud we are not some country which effectively tortures women. Anyways, I blame Tymoshenko for gas disputes, she is an idiot.

However, I cannot understand why Russia is selling gas to Ukraine right now at the highest price of any coutnry as Tymoshenko is in jail already (undoubtedly harsh but nontheless) and we have a pro-russian president. This is completely unfair, disgusting and betrayful and makes me mad. Russia should treat us better, we are the same people for gods sakes. Where is their loyalty, love to us as they say? Why are you not protecting us, helping us and treating us worse then germany, the country that attacked us 50 years ago, remember? Since 1991 we feel abandoned.

They are cute, pity if they caught cold! The security should have given them some cloths to put on and now if they catch cold security is to be blamed for it.

Slava: Anybody who have seen how Ukraine’s large Diaspora communities are by and large anti-Russia would feel little sympathy for the protest represented by these naked women. Ukraine would have to decide its future: either continue hosting Western warships loaded with nuclear weapons and spy radars directed at Russia and welcome anti-Russians imperialists or making a strategic packed with Russia.

@New World Order We elected the most Pro-Russian candidate and put Tymoshenko (Most Anti-Russian candidate) to Jail for 7 years. All we ask in return is better relations with Russia but they refuse, we don't have any spies and don't work for the CIA you fool. We are not in NATO, we did not join the EU as of yet even though they want us, we cooperate with NATO sometimes but so does Russia. What else do we need to do? I think we've done much more then expected, no?!? What do you personally know of Ukraine? Ukrainian diaspora? They disagree upon themselves, they put our whole country to shame. While Kiev and the east and south are developing their own regions (many of) the west flees to other countries rather then work thinking it's any better there. They have the mentality of chinese people there. That exactly is the Diaspora, people from western Ukraine. The rest are immigrants from over 100 years ago who fled the Czar, of course they are angry, and also put me to shame as they don't resemble modern Ukrainians at all, but actually manage to speak out in a 100 year old ukrainian language that even I cannot understand. So don't think the Ukrainian Diaspora represents the people who stay in Ukraine at all.

Ukrainian-Canadian community does not forget Holodomor famine-genocide 1932-1933, nor does it forgive the regime that murdered more than 3 million - and possibly more than 10 million Ukrainians -  in that tragic time of mass starvation and cruelty.
