Ukraine is very complex. As I have stated before I am on neither side, it's a very bad situation all around. Most Westerners don't even know where it is on a map, let alone the past 100's of years of history behind it. I think these two videos can provide a bit better understanding of what is going on over there and why.
The first is a documentary Oliver Stone did about what I would say is the Russian perspective of the Color Revolutions in 2004 and then 2014.
The second is by John Matze. His video explains what he thinks is the reason Russia is invading. It has to do with oil, gas, water and choke points for an invading army.
I hope this information will help you have a better understanding of the long history & complexity of "The Borderlands".
Being in Japan I am extremely concerned this is going to spill over to Taiwan. If that happens God helps us all.
