[quote]The European Union has suspended work on a trade and association agreement with Ukraine after failing to get a "clear commitment" from President Viktor Yanukovych to sign it.

Mr Yanukovych - apparently under pressure from Russia - backed out of signing it in November.

But Ukraine and the EU had said they would continue negotiating.

Tens of thousands of people are again protesting in Kiev against Mr Yanukovych's failure to sign.[/quote]

Payback for Ukraine's goverment playing hard to get.
Probably also because of the massive protests that even the police & military in Ukraine can't control.
Since now the protestors will get even more pissed off at the goverment in Ukraine for not jumping on the EU deal right away.

I guess its a classic case of old men who sell entire peoples in political matters.

Sounds like this yanukovych character has already been bought.
