In the center of Kiev, where the transgender march took place, one of the LGBT opponents tried to break through to the march participants with a cross. The media described this event as an attempt by a radical to “defend himself against the police with a cross.”

Here’s how different media describe the same event differently:

“In Kiev, during the march of transgender people, which is taking place today, on May 22, one of the protesters against this nationalist tried to break through to the column of the participants of the march with a cross in his hands,” writes Strana. The man with the cross was harshly detained by the police. The intruder tried to climb the hill, but law enforcement officers intercepted him, knocking him to the ground and detaining him.”

And here is how “RP” describes the same event: “During the arrest, the guy tried not to let go of the cross and seemed to want to protect him from the police. The police have not yet provided official information about those detained during the march. “
