Sauce please? It was probably from RT.
From what I understand, before the overthrow the Ukrainian government voted to keep ties with russia over joining the EU despite the fact that a majority of it's citizens wanted to side with europe. They overthrew their old president and parliment and Yanuckovych fled to Russia. Russia now makes the backlash from these events from the russo-ethnic citizens bigger than it really is as a guise to place Yanuckovych back into power so he can continue political ties with the Ukraine.
