[Count of Monte Fisto]

The spark that began the revolution was something called Europe: a trade agreement with the European Union that many Ukrainians saw as a chance to enter a world of free trade rather than government syndicates, and the rule of law rather than overwhelming corruption

LOL. The Ukrainians should have looked to Spain, Greece, Hungry, and Cyprus to see what happens when a country hands over its sovereignty to the sodomite EU.

The insolvency of Greece, Spain, Cyprus etc. are not the fault of the EU. It's their own fault. The EU is imposing unpopular austerity measures. Because of Yanukovich’s corruption and embezzlement of billions Ukraine is on the verge of bankruptcy and the new government is already talking about the unpopular measures they will have to take to stabilize the economy after the gangster criminal Yanukovich has ruined it so badly.

Ukraine PM Yatsenyuk warns of 'unpopular steps' ahead - February 26, 2014 - "We are to undertake extremely unpopular steps as the previous government and previous president were so corrupted that the country is in a desperate financial plight," Mr Yatsenyuk told the BBC after the cabinet was announced.
