Weird how they were happy to trade and provide loans to me before 2014.

You mean while Moscow's puppet President Viktor Yanukovych was in power? Hmm, what ELSE happened in 2014? Oh yes! The people of Ukraine rose up with Euromaidan and kicked Yanukovych out. Yanukovych ran to Russia and soon after that Russia invaded Crimea.
