Considering the well documented level of violent provocation from Pravy Sektor the government response was very restrained, and your allusions to Syria, Libya are a fantasy.

Yanukovich would have been well within his purview to call a state of emergency once the "protesters" took control of government ministry buildings.

Still might happen if the current negotiations fail to clear the streets.
