Whomever designed the logo of #Poroshenko's 2020 strategy must be fired. The font, colors and overall style are 100% #Yanukovych. Oops

Another Ukraine update from RFE/RL's news desk:
Ukrainian Parliament Speaker Oleksandr Turchynov has signed a lustration bill adopted by the parliament on September 16.
Under the law, up to one million public servants, including cabinet ministers, will be screened for loyalty to root out corrupt practices hanging over from the previous pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych's administration.
The law is expected to purge officials linked to the pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine's east and Russia's other structures, including intelligence.
Officials unable to explain their sources of income and assets will be banned from public office for five to 10 years.
After signing the document at a press conference in Kyiv today in the presence of journalists and public activists, Turchynov called on President Petro Poroshenko to sign the bill into the law by the end of the day.
