Here is a very good video that explains the whole history of the Ukraine. It explains the animosity with Russia (Centuries of Russian suppression) and how Russia views the land of the Ukrainians (it's theirs).

Thank you. Cossacks demanded independence in 1600 and were composed of various kinds of people: Catholics, Russians, Tartars, and Greek Orthodox.
Good news. Russia today is curing Covid, embarrassing Biden, defeating liberal freaks in America and inspiring Trump-like leaders in So Korea and other nations.

Interesting...it seems to be an ongoing battle for control or access to Baltic Sea among other things that has gone on for hundreds of years.

The video is informative, however too little time and detail is given to Catherine the Great’s seizure of Ukraine from the Ottomans. It’s subsequent repopulation by Slavs, Jews, and Dutch/German Anabaptists
