Freedom for Ukraine strange, says Sergey Lavrov

Sergey Lavrov told western politicians who advocate freedom of choice for Ukraine but say this must be pro-European choice have a strange interpretation of freedom in  a security conference in Munich. 

Lavrov contended the Ukrainian Government’s right to stop the violence specifying a 1966 international treaty on basic political rights which has been adopted by almost all UN members. 

Ukraine has been embroiled in a deep political crisis since November 2013 when president Viktor Yanukovich’s government decided not to sign a free trade agreement with the EU prompting mass pro-EU integration protests. Some commentators defined this scenario as a coup initiated by CIA.
