according to the article?
There are three factors that led to the chaos of Ukraine. The first is
that Yanukovych told the citizens he was going through with signing a
document to intertwine Ukraine with the E.U. and as it came closer to
the signing he refused. Also, there is still a kind of fight between
Russia and the West for influence in the Eastern Europe countries.
Kremlin expanded the military and economy which threatened
Ukraines giant military and this made Russia apply pressure to get the
control he wanted. Lastly, the riots that the civilians have been
starting because they are outraged by how the government handles
the street protests. These riots contradicted the things that the
propaganda that the government has been putting out basically
revealing to everyone how Ukraine really is.
