YEREVAN. – The current developments in Ukraine remind more of a pogrom than a revolution,Russian president Vladimir Putin said during his visit to Armenia.

“In my view it is not much related to relations between Ukraine and EU,” he said.

Putin believes these events are preparations for the presidential election campaign in 2015.

A protest action was brutally dispersed by law enforcers in the central square of Kyiv on the night of November 30.
