The so-called ‘EuroMaidan protests’ started in November 2014 as a reaction to the then President Viktor Yanukovich’s refusal to sign the ‘EU association deal’.
But the so-called ‘EU association deal’ was just a constrained indebtedness and surrender to the bankers moneylenders of Brussels & IMF…as we can see today.

Ukraine plagued by violence, striving for stability

Maidan, 1yr after the U.S.-Nazi coup:
Who fired the shots in central Kiev?
Ukraine is marking one year since the deadliest days of the protests which forced out the previous government. The 20th of February 2014 saw the worst violence, with over 50 people killed in central Kiev. People in the Ukrainian capital have been paying tribute to the victims of the Maidan massacre, laying flowers and lighting candles at the scene of last year’s bloodshed. Back then the new leaders in Kiev, along with their supporters in the US and EU, pointed the finger at the riot police, but witness accounts and media investigations paint a different picture, as RT’s Lizzie Phelan reports.

Protesters tore up the pavement and threw rocks at police, who were initially ordered to refrain from violence. They also used metal chains, pepper-spray and even brought in a digger to intimidate officers.
~
Riot shields failed to provide police with any protection against Molotov cocktails thrown at them from the crowd. This dramatic video shows the officers turning into human torches and only avoiding fatal injuries thanks to fire brigades working on site.

The footage released by the Ukrainian Interior Ministry shows the protesters using firearms, torching vehicles and tires on the chaos-ridden Kiev streets.

The fighting continued into the evening, as protesters assembled barricades and hurled Molotov cocktails at security forces.

Maidan Square (also known as Independence Square) was never dark or quiet during these nights of unrest. It was lit up by burning tires and fireworks, as police forced the protesters back with water cannons and engaged in running street battles.

Many were reportedly killed by unidentified sniper fire from the top floors of the buildings overlooking the main protest site.
~
There were a great number of law enforcers deployed to disperse the raging crowds, but they weren’t always able to hold their positions. The video below shows protesters pushing a truck into a line of shield-bearing riot police, and then torching them with Molotov cocktails.

Maidan Square transformed beyond recognition during the unrest – massive clouds of black smoke rose from the historic city center and the buildings on the square were partly destroyed.
