Some reports are saying 77 people killed now (60 being protesters).

As Arsenal mentioned, there is no easy political solution as half of Ukraine underwent intense Rusification for a long time and like to associate with Russia. Russia will continue to support them (and extort them with bail out money).

You would almost have to set up autonomous regions in any long term settlement plan. It wouldn't be too radical as Crimea already has some autonomy within Ukraine.
