Edited for presidents name fk up
Reminder that Ukrainian citizens protested for many months when their government didn't sign for closer ties with the EU, instead choosing closer ties with Russia. That evolved into a full on popular revolution, and the president and his people were ousted (many committed suicide).

This is when Russia started covertly supporting the separatist movement, and then took Crimea

Also anecdotally growing up I had several Ukrainian friends and they'd be very quick to correct you if you called them Russian but everyone is different with this...

I don't know where you get "more than half" whatever, but it must be a weirdly worded poll or only done in the separatist regions or something. Ukraine has spent all this time trying to get out from under Russia's thumb, they finally succeeded, and now you think they all want to go back?
