The shadow of a pro-European demonstrator is seen on a EU flag during pro-European movement rally in Kiev's downtown, early on November 27, 2013. Pro-West Ukrainians staged the biggest protest rally in Kiev since the 2004 Orange Revolution, demanding that the government sign a key pact with the European Union. The opposition called the rally after President Viktor Yanukovych's government reversed a plan to sign a historic deal deepening ties with the European Union, in a U-turn critics said was forced by the Kremlin.
