Ukraine was not a vassal state from 1991 to 2014.

Read the Independence Act of Ukraine from 1991, a referendum was held on that act by the entire population and approved with a clear majority.

The text clearly states that Ukraine should be independent and neutral status, it shall not join any military block.

By 2013-2014 calls for joining EU which has a defensive clause, effectively are calls to cancel the Independence Act of Ukraine.
