Background
On November 21st Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych abruptly ended talks of a trade pact with the European Union sparking protests in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. In the weeks after these protests have erupted into a full blown revolution, with the Ukrainian parliament ousting Yanukovych. While Ukraine has established an interim government, Russia has deployed troops to the Crimea region of Ukraine causing an international crisis. Much of Crimea is populated by ethnic Russians who prefer Russia to the new Ukrainian government and have voted to succeed from Ukraine, causing an even bigger stir.
