History of Ukraine

Introduced by penguin person General Slava Knowledge :-)

A cartoon buddy of Ukraine history notes maker.

Present status

Present status - An unwinnable conflict is in progress in the second largest country within Europe, the first largest being Russia Ukraine’s ex partner within the dissolved by peoples choice Soviet Union (USSR).

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union (by the final choice and will of the Russian People themselves) Ukraine, all the Baltic States and Russia had the freedom to choose where their future lay.

The complexity over territorial defence political and social grouping was still to be finalised after the majority of Russian people rejected the USSR (and the localised ongoing conflict over changes to territory were still be resolved) when both ‘patience’ and diplomacy failed, to be replaced by an unnecessary urgency to resolve the evolving situation by force of arms because of the ‘fear’ that Ukraine ‘may’ become a threat by choosing to defend itself by means unacceptable to foreign politicians.
The eight year political and military war over the Russian Separatist Donetsk and Luhansk (Donbas) areas of Ukraine was left to fester to conflict, which exasperated the situation.

The force of arms situation is always unwinnable as to win you must have first ‘won’ the will of the people that will be under your control, not lose it from the start and to have them hate you. Wars are won by be freeing people not enslaving them. Every Empire has eventually learned that lesson the hard way. In the twenty first century it is the same premise, and the premise and will of any honourable soldier is to defend the society, culture, country and people. Attacking neighbours for political gain will only make their own soldiers do the same.
After the outcome of any war the ‘winners’ will be judged by the many, not the few. And the few, will still have to live on this Planet with the many.

To Defend both the peoples of Ukraine and Russia who have a shared social history - Halt unwinnable political aggression.

Honour is defending all Civilians, not attacking them.
