KIEV, UKRAINE, JANUARY 20, 2014: A demonstrator wears armor designed for the middle ages as police forces and demonstrators clashed in central Kiev on Hrushevsky Street. The violence began after demonstrators marched towards parliament and encountered police forces who blocked their path on Hrushevsky Street on Sunday January 19. A small, little known group, made up of young men with rightwing views called Right Sector took an active role in the fighting. A short distance away is Independence Square, which has been the center of a protest movement for approximately 2 months and has been dubbed the Euro Maidan (Euro Square) by the demonstrators. The protest movement began in November after the Ukrainian government said it would not sign an EU Association Agreement that would have brought the nation closer to the European Union.
