Ukraine is no better than Russia and in some cases is even worse.
Ukraine has a serious Nazi problem.
While in Russia one oppositionist Nemstov was murdered, soon after in Ukraine as many as 8 opposition MEPs were murdered (allegedly committing suicide). The Ukrainian nationalists claimed responsibility for the murders. [1]
Recently the Ukrainian parliament has passed a law (act 2538) that forbids questioning the heroism of fascist organizations such as OUN UPA and their leader Stepan Bandera - which are responsible for massacring and ethnic cleansing 200 000 Polish women and children in the Volhynia Massacre. [2]
Stepan Bandera which also was a Nazi collaborator is commonly regarded as Ukraine's national hero by most of them.
