Did Russian television ‘use actress to portray FIVE different women’ as it reported normal Ukrainians backed Kremlin

Russian television makers have been accused of using an actress to pose as at least five different women opposed to the revolution in Ukraine.

The blonde woman was seen on television broadcasts as an aggrieved housewife in Odessa, describing her terror at the ‘pro-fascist’ politicians who grabbed power in Ukraine during last month’s revolution.

However, many social network users were quick to notice that the ‘housewife’ bears an uncanny resemblance to several other women interviewed – prompting accusations that she is an actress hired to sow discord in Ukraine and stoke pro-Moscow groups to incite people against the Kiev authorities.
