    During 2014, What Started out As the Euro-Maidan

    No. 3 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, JANUARY 18, 2015 5 2014: THE YEAR IN REVIEW From Euro-Maidan to Revolution of Dignity uring 2014, what started out as the Euro-Maidan was transformed into the Revolution of Dignity. By Dyear’s end, Ukraine had a new president, a new Verkhovna Rada and a new government. And, at the end of the year, the Rada voted to abandon the country’s previ- ous “non-bloc” status and set a course for NATO member- ship. A civilizational choice had been made. As the year began, there was concern about the regular presidential election that was to be held in March 2015 as the opposition – that is the pro-Western parties of Ukraine – appeared to have no unified election strategy other than being against Viktor Yanukovych.
