This e-book is a compilation of news items and analysis that cover the events and issues that have shaped Ukraine before, during, and after the 2014 uprising on Maidan, Kyiv’s Independence Square, which led pro-Moscow President Viktor Yanukovych to flee the country. These stories recount the original protests, Russia’s takeover of Crimea, war in eastern Ukraine, the challenges faced by Ukraine’s new government, and much more. All of these selections originally appeared on Transitions Online, a highly respected source of information on Central and Eastern Europe that has been in operation, first in print and then solely on the Internet, for over 20 years. This is a follow-up to TOL’s popular e-book on the roots of the 2014 Ukrainian uprising, “Ukraine’s Identity Crisis: Understanding the Protests and the Politics.”
