    Looks to me like the protesters have been infiltrated by neo nazi group, might start losing whatever support they have soon enough, sad to see democracy failing in a European country

    Disgraceful situation in this day and age. A democratically elected government going totally against it's own people's wishes.

    *awaiting" the version of events from supporters of Russia Today!

    Well, its a split between East and West Ukraine, who has the majority vote though? And yes this time the protests have spread to many cities outside Kiev unlike last time.

    From people i know and live in ukraine region

    So a random poll of 45m+ people :rolleyes:

    As you know each region of Ukraine is different. The West especially is historically European in its ways and the far eastern areas like Donestk is of a Soviet era Russian type region with a mix of Ukrainian and Russian speakers with each of both declaring a different nationality of Russian and Ukrainian!

    Ukranian and Russian speakers alike are united in this.

    Anecdotal on a few people you know yeh?

    We simply do not know the level of feeling in the country, they have a habit of not conducting credible opinion polls!
    What we do know is that there is a significant opposition, how big they are is contentious.
