Just one correction. Ukraine was an EU ally and in their pipeline for joining. Yanukovych pulling a flip to sign treaties with Russia instead is what instigated the Maidan uprising.
My bad.
No problem. Most people weren't following Eastern European stuff back then and there's been a ton of propaganda thrown around since.
Yeah I was living in Eastern Europe back then so no excuse, but I guess most people don't follow neighbouring countries' politics. For example I have no idea what the political landscape in Romania is.
