The Daily Star - Politics - Lebanese opposition has learned much from Ukraine

The Daily Star - Politics - Lebanese opposition has learned much from Ukraine: "Wednesday, March 02, 2005
When opposition members decided to put a red and white scarf around their necks as a symbol of the Lebanese flag after the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, they were not recalling the Ukrainian experience that took place five months ago, but were rather based on that experience. The international public opinion that strongly supported the popular protests against the Russian-backed regime and that sympathized with thousands of Ukrainians who supported their opposition, has become ready to accept and support a similar climate in any part of the world."
