Canaccord Capital - Morning Coffee - Thursday April 1, 2004 Sticky Situation U.S. billionaire and philanthropist George Soros was splashed with water and glue in Ukraine's capital Kiev on Wednesday by two young Ukrainians who burst into a hall where he was addressing a human rights conference. "Soros, Out of Ukraine! You'll get nothing here!" the Ukrainians shouted as they carried out their protest, the Interfax news agency reported. They were immediately detained and led away by security personnel. Soros said he doubted it was just an ordinary incident. "Somebody is behind this," he was quoted as saying by Interfax. Earlier Soros had problems with finding premises for the forum in the Crimea, which were solved only after Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma's interference. The Soros Foundation is heavily involved in promoting civil society and the development of democratic ideas, chiefly in former Soviet bloc countries. But it is sometimes accused of interfering in countries' internal affairs.
