Here is a professor from the University of Chicago who explains the divisions in Ukrainian society:

That’s his personal website. Here is some of what he talks about:

Essentially Ukraine is extremely divided by ethnicity.. Russian to the east, Ukrainian to the west. When you look at the election results map there is an enormous difference in political preferences.

Their map is stark: east vs. west, sort of like our red/blue map shows urban vs. rural. It’s amazing they were able to keep the place together for as long as they did.

A house divided against itself cannot stand, and that may well be said for us too.

Where does he talk about that stuff, and where is his map?

When I clicked on the most prevalent thing about Ukraine it was a long youtube presentation from someone else

Secession

It's time for us to jettison those who reject our national values because there's no changing them. Time to secede.

We should extend the invitation to secede on a county by county basis.

While we're at it, since we'd be forming a new country, we should extend the invitation to counties in Canada and Mexico as well.

Note that this option is becoming increasingly popular.
