Euromaidan or the Dignity Revolution began in Ukraine in 2013, when Ukrainians learned about the decision of Viktor Yanukovych, the country’s president, about the suspension of integration with the European Union. The protesters demanded that the Agreement be signed immediately, and the government, which betrayed national interests, should retire. The situation was aggravated after the president’s decision to release Maidan from the protesters allegedly for the preparation for the New Year.
