The Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union, and so was on the Allied side, against Germany. Huge battles were fought over the major Ukrainian cities, both at the time of the German invasion, and again when the Russians were driving out the Germans. Some individual Ukrainians welcomed the Germans when they invaded, thinking anyone would be better than Stalin. They soon learned that Hitler was certainly no improvement. Individual Ukrainians also collaborated with the Germans in rounding up and murdering Ukrainian Jews, and some served in the German military. Most Ukrainians though fought against the Germans.
