Ukraine: Post-Revolution Era

Ukraine's Orange Revolution was overthrown as a result of a democratic election and such a fate threatens Ukraine's Maidan Revolution. 
Today, the economic aspirations and social welfare are of the main concerns of Ukrainian. And getting tight ties with the U.S. and EU is no more on top priority. Additionally the influence of Crimea issue and the events in the east of Ukraine on Ukrainian public opinion are undeniable as well. It should be added that citizens in the east of Ukraine will participate in the next elections, which is affecting the country's political fate determination. 
Given the circumstances, the membership of Ukraine in the European Union would not make any change in the country's political fate in order to end the dispute of the pro-Russians and pro-Europeans in the country. The Hungarian government is a good example to prove this claim. 
And according to the reports, Russia is going to assassinate a number of Ukrainian journalists who write against Moscow. Certainly the raise of public awareness about the Russian threats by mobilizing all of communication tools widely can prevent future disasters. 
There is no doubt that it is possible to rebuild the trust of people to the Moscow and pro-Russians politicians while rebuilding the Ukrainian economy is not easy and if the government fails in realization the Ukrainian economic goals, then the public trust to the pro-Europeans politicians reduces. In such circumstances the promotion of public awareness to the expansionism and un-reliability of Moscow is what can increase the government chance to win in the future elections.
