Out of the recent turmoil in Ukraine came the promise of early elections, the dismissal of pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovich, and now, unrest in Crimea, in the country’s south, which has a large Russian population.

And what he has seen helps to explain why some ethnic Russians in Crimea and the east of the country are worried about the future.

After 13 years on the run and with a $5 million reward for information leading to his capture, Joaquin Guzman Loera, the leader of the Sinaloa drug cartel in Mexico, had achieved almost legendary status – until he was caught this week. But as Will Grant reports, the reaction to this news was hardly ecstatic from a population which loses thousands to narco-related violence every year.
