Ukraine's Jailed ex-PM Tymoshenko Backs Protesters Clashing with Police

Ukraine's jailed former prime minister and opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko on Monday came out in support of the protesters clashing with police in Kiev, saying she would be with them if she could.
"Protect Ukraine and do not fear anything. Ukraine has no defense other than you. You are heroes," she said in a statement read by her spokeswoman to Agence France Presse. Tymoshenko said if she were free, "I would be with you... Freedom is worth such a fight."
