EuroMaidan Revolution
John Herbst, William Green Miller, Steven K. Pifer, William B. Taylor Jr.: What the West must do for Ukraine

If the United States and European Union wish to encourage a peaceful resolution, they must use their leverage now. Otherwise the situation could degenerate further, to the point where the West will be no more than a spectator.
