Who are maydanovtsy?Who called that a new word?How are they different from the people or the existing political forces?Let's deal.
What happened
begin to understand who the maydanovtsy need to study the events.What do people want?Why come to the Maidan?The following happens.The government firmly promised the people to adhere to the policy of European integration.Naturally, the advantages of this trend were painted in the most glowing colors.Then, suddenly, it became clear that this course is not so beneficial to Ukraine.The authorities decided to make a rapid turn of one hundred eighty degrees in the direction of Russia.It is not like people.He began to catch up to the place that historically has secured the role of "the shelter of peaceful protests" - Independence Square.The requirement was one - back on track.To sign the date - November 30 - it became clear that the authorities listen to the voice of the people is not going: the agreement is not signed.The meaning of the protest was lost, the square remains the order of hundreds of young people.And then there was a sudden turn.This small group of peace they decided rude "clean."Armed attack on defenseless people bombshell.Protests have acquired a different meaning.
What do the maydanovtsy
Acceleration people turned just in time to breathe new meaning into the protesters.And soon proved to them that endure the current authorities have no more strength.On the Independence began to gather all those who hate corruption, lawlessness and arrogance of the old regime.And occasions during the reign of Yanukovych won a lot.And unsolved problems of local government, and squeezing people out of business, and the uncompromising attitude of dissent.All of this secretly accumulated in the nation.Armed attack on a handful of students was the wick zazhёgshim popular revolt.Maydanovtsy who began their performances peacefully, demanding that European integration is gradually formulate other purposes.It became evident that the people are not satisfied with not only external, and any policy of the current government.The participants began to put forward clear demands for change in the country's leadership: early presidential elections, the resignation of the government.
composition protesters
I must say that the uniformity maydanovtsev observed only at the beginning of appearances.Over time, the total mass flow become separated and isolated group.So, who are the maydanovtsy?Who is going on the square?The largest group of young people is considered.These are people who have grown up in the Square, absorbed its ideals.They were heading to Europe is inspired from the cradle.In another life, they do not see.It is a progressive, patriotic young people, mostly from the western and central regions.These people are on the Maidan was not for money - for the idea.The next group - representatives of the older generation.They came to protest for the second time.Disappointing results of the "orange" revolution, the armed crackdown of peaceful protests have caused these citizens righteous indignation.They came to defend their freedom.Another matter - the nationalists.This is the ideological foundation of the Maidan.They inspire and configure all others.Their position, if not me, then who?Such maydanovtsy joined the ranks of the right sector, to prevent protests subside again when the government met all their demands.
Distribution of traffic in the country
Beginning in the center of Kiev, the protest quickly spread through the territory of Ukraine.To help maydanovtsam began to organize the action, first in western and then in the eastern regions.Active people in different regions is different.It says that in 23 years, Ukraine has not managed to gain a strong statehood.Too different ideals lead people.If the West unanimously seeks to Europe, east range, assuming that Russia would be better.Very "broke" the Crimea.This is a special area where maydanovtsev not recognize ever.
