Ukraine's Dilemma.



Doctors provide medical assistance to protesters wounded during recent clashes with police, inside a makeshift hospital in the Mykhaylo Gold Domes cathedral in Kiev.
 St. Mikhailivskiy Cathedral  used as a hospital
 
What's happened in Ukraine is driven by the country's history with Russia, its deep economic woes, a sense of cultural fondness for the West, wide discontent with government corruption, and two decades of divided politics. 

Ukraine saw its biggest protests against the government’s refusal to sign an agreement with the European Union and instead signed with Russia.  Ukraine is basically, east and west, with a river splitting the half Russian and half Ukrainian parts.

The people of Ukraine wants western style living, good economics, and Russian support with reduce oil prices.

A lot of noise on Russian soldiers on the ground, the world is asking them to get out.....
Even if Ukraine joined the EU, their situation would be like Greece. Same economic problems that no one else will solve it for you.

Just a thought
