Zinaida Patskan, 80, stands in front of her destroyed house following a shelling from Ukrainian government forces in Semyonovka village near the major highway which links Kharkiv, outside Slovyansk, Ukraine, Thursday, May 22, 2014. The election is a critical step for Ukraine. Russia, which the West alleges is fomenting the unrest that grips Ukraine’s eastern regions, claims the acting government is a junta; a credible election would bring a level of legitimacy to the government and undermine Moscow’s argument.
