Demonstrators declared opposition to the visit by the U.S. President and to efforts by Ukraine to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
Outside the U.S. embassy in Ukraine's capital city of Kiev, protesters burnt an effigy of Bush, in advance of the U.S. President's arrival.
Bush's two-day visit aims to show US support for Ukraine's bid to join NATO. Demonstrators argue that Ukraine will fare better, if it remains allied with Russia.
