The dweller of the tent camp that has blocked the main street of Ukraine’s capital since protests that toppled the government earlier this year, stands guard as volunteers arrive to clear the square in Kyiv, Ukraine, Saturday, Aug. 9, 2014. Protesters erected the barricades to protect a sprawling tent camp on the central city’s main square. Although the camp’s size dwindled sharply after President Viktor Yanukovych fled the country in February and a new government came to power, a determined core of demonstrators remained in a show of suspicion of the new authorities. Some tents remained on Saturday. But Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko, who was one of the leaders of the protests against Yanukovych, was quoted by Ukrainian media as saying an agreement has been reached with the protest holdouts to restore free movement in the center.
