Ukraine Purge: Communists, Cronies, And Crooks Face The Axe -- Fred Weir, CSM
Ukraine is launching a review of officials to weed out former President Yanukovych's appointees, members of the Communist Party, and anyone living beyond their reported means. But critics say the move could hurt Ukraine more than help it.
Moscow — For the past few weeks angry crowds of Ukrainian activists have been literally trashing politicians suspected of corruption or pro-Russian sympathies – by throwing them into garbage-filled dumpsters, holding them down, and dousing them with water.

Now those activists – and, surveys suggest, much of the Ukrainian public – are going to get what they've been demanding since the Maidan revolution overthrew pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych in February.
Under a new lustration law that goes into effect today, the Ukrainian government is to begin a thorough vetting of almost a million Ukrainian officials. A pink slip awaits those with links to the regime of Mr. Yanukovych, members of the former Soviet Communist Party, and anyone whose lifestyles cannot be explained by their declared incomes.

The situation is now getting ugly in Ukraine .... and this exercise to purge employees will be nothing more but a cover to fire anyone that they suspect is pro-Russian and/or is in disagreement with government policies. This reminds me of the old Soviet Union .... government officials and bureaucrats were always routinely screened for loyalty to the Communist Party .... and if there were any doubts on your loyalty you were gone. The only ones who were exempt from this exercise were top members of the Communist Party, and their family members. My prediction is that this old Soviet practice is going to come back with a vengeance in Ukraine .... if you are not loyal to the Poroshenko government .... you will be replaced.
