This video is very biased. The Maidan was against pro-russian president. Surprisingly, that president is one of the main stars himself in the movie. Very likely it's even funded by him and/or russian government.
TLDR; the president didn't want to sign EU association, but people wanted the association to be signed.
That president decided not to sign EU association at the very latest moment when all the documents were ready. People didn't like it and went to protest. However, police was violently beating protestors, including students, which eventually ended up with casualties and the president fleeing from the country.
Actually incorrectly. The killing of protesters (and policemen - who no one talks about) let to the president fleeing the country. And with good reason, since there surely would have been an attempt on his life. And you can argue the people of the UK didn't want Brexit - despite the majority voting for it. Then these same people rioted and stormed government buildings because they didn't get their way.
What about the Holodomor? The Holodomor 'to kill by starvation'also known as the Terror-Famine or the Great Famine, was a famine in Soviet Ukraine from 1932 to 1933 that killed millions of Ukrainians, organised by the Communists of Stalin. Strange did I miss this in the beginning? Because this is one of the main reasons why the Ukrainins collaborated with the Nazi's. This video seems "to forget " quit a lot of what has happened.
I watched it and now watching ‘The Putin Interviews’. For part 3 YouTube imposes a warning, as a soft approach tactic to try to stop anyone to watch it. It’s because there is discussion about Ukraine. This tells you all you need to know.
