Christoph Pauly et al., "How the EU Lost Ukraine" (Nov. 2013) https://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/how-the-eu-lost-to-russia-in-negotiations-over-ukraine-trade-deal-a-935476.html

How Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, bowing to pressure from Putin, decided not to sign the association agreement between Ukraine and the EU, how that sparked the Euro Maidan protests, and how all differs from the "Orange Revolution" of 2004.

In case the "International Cheap Left" wants to learn something. (No, there was no US coup involved. It was Russian harrassment, pressure, extortion.)
