Didn't you tell them that there was no Customs declaration required of you when you entered Ukraine from Russia?
It's difficult to judge Ukrainians as a whole. I've had both friendly and unfriendly encounters. I found Belarus equally unpredictable, possibly less friendly. In general those who are angry and unhappy with their lives will take it out on a foreigner, who they believe must be rich (and happy).
