- A short-lived truce has broken down in Ukraine as street battles have
erupted between anti-government protesters and police. Last night the
country's embattled president and the opposition leaders demanding his
resignation called for a truce and negotiations to try to resolve
Ukraine's political crisis. But hours later, armed protesters attempted
to retake Independence Square sparking another day of deadly violence.
At least 50 people have died since Tuesday in the bloodiest period of
Ukraine's 22-year post-Soviet history. While President Obama has vowed
to "continue to engage all sides" a recently leaked audio recording
between two top U.S. officials reveal the Obama administration has been
secretly plotting with the opposition. We speak to Stephen Cohen,
professor emeritus of Russian studies and politics at New York
University and Princeton University. His most recent book, "Soviet Fates
and Lost Alternatives: From Stalinism to the New Cold War," is out in
paperback. His latest Nation article is "Distorting Russia: How the
American Media Misrepresent Putin, Sochi and Ukraine."Pages
