Liar... A clear majority of Ukrainians had in fact voted to side with Russia.

The 2014 Ukrainian election was won by pro-Russian Yanukovitch, who ran on a platform of Ukraine joining the EU, which he reneged on after the election. The problem for Russia is that Ukrainians travel, both to Russia and the EU and clearly see the better standard of living in the EU.

Initially, Yanukovych said Ukraine’s integration with the EU was the country’s “strategic aim,”

Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych announced that his country would not sign a landmark partnership agreement with the European Union

A poll conducted October 2-15 by GfK Ukraine showed three times as many Ukrainians favoring the association agreement with the European Union as supporting the Russian-led Customs Union:

Nobody in the Ukraine with the mentality of a chipmunk or even an Iota better than that ever voted to Simply hand their country over to George Soros ,Bork Obunga, SlicKKK KKKlintler, Patricia Nuland or any other transnational gangsters , to allow their Nation to be made into a planetary epicenter for child trafficking, money laundering , and every other kind of major International gangsterism , to allow American interests to construct and operate 75 illegal biowar Laboratories within their nation's territory , or to place NATO weapons at Russia's doorstep from their territory despite repeated warnings from Russia that this amounted to Crossing an absolute Redline. All of that BS was imposed on ukrainians; not anything they ever voted for.

Russians are there to rescue the Ukraine from the rogue government in Kiev.
