FILE- This Sunday, May 18, 2014, file photo, shows a body guard of insurgent leader Denis Pushilin, back dropped by a statue of Lenin during a rally by pro-Russian people in Lenin Square, in Donetsk, Ukraine. In the streets of Donetsk, the separatist leaders and their followers are increasingly derided as a collection of heavily armed, barely employed misfits. Outside of the rebels' headquarters, it can be difficult to find anyone who agrees with their calls to secede from Ukraine and link this part of the country — with its generations of ethnic and linguistic ties to Russia — to Moscow.
