What events led to the Revolution of Dignity?

The Revolution of Dignity, also known as the Euromaidan protests, was a series of demonstrations and civil unrest that took place in Ukraine from November 2013 to February 2014. The protests were sparked by then-President Viktor Yanukovych's decision to back out of a trade agreement with the European Union in favor of closer ties with Russia. This decision was seen as a betrayal of the Ukrainian people's desire for closer integration with Europe and led to widespread anger and frustration. As the protests grew in size and intensity, they also came to symbolize broader discontent with corruption, economic stagnation, and political repression in Ukraine. Ultimately, the Revolution of Dignity culminated in Yanukovych's ouster and the establishment of a new pro-European government in Ukraine.
