Krushchev, Brezhnev, Chernenko, and half the Soviet Politburo were Ukrainians. They not only governed Ukraine but the whole USSR and half of Europe including Slovakia.

Is this your way of telling us that Ukraine is part of Russia, thus Russia is entitled to it?

What’s wrong with Ukraine turning back to its Russian roots?

Surely no one views it as a bad thing that Canada has a pro-US government, so why is it bad that Ukraine has a pro-Russian government? They are two related peoples with a common history.

50% of Ukrainians are - Russians, 60 % of Ukrainians are Russian-speakers, also 90% of their industrial area is in “Russian” part of Ukraine including entire sea line.

Its Hruschev fault actually. He “donated” pure Russian areas to Ukraine, Krimea and seashore, Donbass etc and now 50% of Ukrainians are- Russians.
Ukraine is a communist-created nation with little or nothing to do with ancient Ukraine.
