The United States media is currently refusing to cover the Ukrainian protests, so I have to. They start with the the President, Viktor Yanukovych, rejecting an accord with the European Union in order to gain a better relationship with neighboring Russia. This wasn't what the citizens of western Ukraine wanted. All the protesters want is for the President to resign. Most of the starting protests were mainly peaceful, but the police started shooting protesters with snipers and AK-47s. Police also were kidnapping the protesters that were hospitalized and beat and killed them. The protests have been increasingly getting more violent, with protesters having to form their own defense groups. Now, every day people are being killed. The worst day was February 20 in Kiev, where 77 people were killed and 600 wounded.
