U.S. Troubled by Violence in Moscow

The U.S. is "troubled by reports of violence in Moscow during the protests on May 6th and by the arrests that have been carried out over the last three days," a Department of State spokesman stated. "We are disturbed by images of police mistreatment of peaceful protestors both during the protests and after detentions," the official added. During the May 6 rally, which was dispersed by the police, and later at mass protests, hundreds of oppositionists were arrested. Most of them were released after a brief detention.
