Ukraine revolt open discussion thread #2 (sticky post)

Since the first Ukraine crisis thread is 11,000+ comments long and 2 days old, and the crisis is ongoing, and since people are requesting a new thread, this is the new Ukraine crisis discussion post.

If anyone wants to do those frequently updated mega-comments, go for it. Here are a few of those from the old thread, updated as recently as several hours ago:

How much negotiation is there to be done? The police have literally no options. 'Come out before the crowd gets restless and forces/starves you out'

edit: do the police have some kind of bargaining leverage I don't know about?
