Background Timeline of the Euromaidan Ukraine had become gripped by unrest since President Viktor Yanukovych refused to sign an association agreement with the European Union on 21 November 2013. A widespread movement known as 'Euromaidan' demanded closer ties with the European Union, and the ousting of President Yanukovych.https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-idUSBRE9BA04420131212 Kiev protesters gather, EU dangles aid promise Reuters 12 December 2013 10 April 2014 Balmforth, Richard Significant support for the movement built in western Ukrainian oblasts as the severity of the unrest in Kyiv grew.
