Military officers confirm the information about the presence of Russian special forces near Central Election Committee.

A Ukrainian special forces officer made a public statement in the headquarters of the presidential candidate V. Yushchenko, claiming that at the present moment there are Russian special forces dressed in the uniform of Crimean special police. Additionally, there are some persons of 'unidentified origin' dressed in the uniform of Crimean and Donetsk police, who openly admitted they were paid $200-500. They confessed that they do not trust their colleagues from the Central and Western regions of Ukraine, and that they are ready to suppress oppositional protesters. At the same time, police from Western and Central Ukraine said they are equipped only with the means of self-defense and are resolute to protect the protesters.
