Any links to what the back story is? Why are they protesting?

Basically the president was a corrupt punk ass Russian-leaning crook. The people stormed the "palace" and deposed him by force. The Russians want him reinstated because he was their guy. The Crimea is where Russian Black Sea fleet is based and is home to an ethnic Russian population that amounts to 60% of the entire Crimea population.
