That was presumably before the crisis kicked off.

MOSCOW—More Ukrainians have swung behind a planned trade-and-political agreement with the European Union, while support for a competing deal for closer integration with Russia has collapsed, according to a survey released Tuesday.
The poll by GfK Ukraine found that 45% favored the association agreement with the EU, while only 14% said they want to join Belarus and Kazakhstan in a Russian-led economic bloc called the Customs Union.
The rest were either undecided or rejected both blocs.

Besides as I said previously this has become about more than just a desire to join the EU. It's also about the Kermlinisation of the Ukrainian government, it's close ties to Russia and back room deals, and the overruling of the Ukrainian people .
