Ukraine's opposition holds a new rally on February 2,2014 amid concern about military intervention in the country's worst crisis since independence, after pledges of support from Europe and the United States and fresh accusations from Russia. The wave of protests that has shaken Ukraine began when Yanukovych turned down a partnership with the European Union under Russian pressure and instead signed up for a $15 billion (11 billion euro) bailout and gas supply discounts from Moscow.
