Russia absolutely does not want anything from the Ukraine. Russia just wants to live peacefully with their neighbors. About 10 million Ukrainians are working in Russia and nobody restricts to their rights on the territory of Russian Federation. But with the support of the USA, the Ukraine President Yanukovych was thrown down.
USA Undersecretary Miss Nuland has supported the protesters and given them some cookies in the square. Now the United States supports the illegal government in Kiev (the nationalists in fact the fascists, although in 1941-1945 Soviet Union and the USA fought together against German fascism).
Russia is on the East of Ukraine.
Ukraine is part of Mars
Ukraine was in Russian Empire and in Soviet Union WITH Russia, but never IN Russia.
Ukraine was in USSR not in Russia!!! Russia was not independet until the break-up of USSR! that is when all the 15 republics became independent states, including UKRAINE and RUSSIA!
Ukraine is not going to join Russia. It is an independent country.
Finland-Russia-Ukraine
This is a silly question. Ukraine!
The Ukraine.
The whole of it.. .Ukraine is a whole separate country from Russia.
Ukraine is a neighbor to Russia, and Russia is a much larger and more powerful country than Ukraine. Historically Russia has dominated Ukraine. In order for Ukraine to maintain its independence, it wants to ally itself with the Western World. If Ukraine is allied with the West, it will not have to worry about Russia attempting to dominate its foreign policy because it will have the protection of NATO.
The sunflower. Why? Because Russia said so and Ukraine always does what Russia says.
In a way. Ukraine is a part of Russia, and Russia is the largest country in the world. Ukraine is quite small actually.
