What's going on over there in Ukraine? Why should Russia fight it? And today’s news said that someone in Ukraine surrendered? What's going on? Can anyone tell me what's going on?

To put it simply, Ukraine is the birthplace of all East Slavs. After the Kievan Rus was destroyed by the Mongols, part of it went to today's Russia, and part of it stayed in Ukraine and was ruled by Poland.

After Russia became stronger, it took advantage of Ukraine's opportunity to rebel against Poland and occupied the eastern part of today's Ukraine

So Ukraine and Russia are like the relationship between the two Maoists and the big Mao

Especially in eastern Ukraine, there is a high sense of identification with Russia, while in western Ukraine, it is more pro-Western, especially the first independent city of Lviv, which was originally Polish territory and is now the majority Polish population

< p>Crimea is another problem. This place was snatched by Russia from the Ottomans with great pains. The indigenous people are Tatars, or Crimean Tatars. During Stalin’s period, Tatars were falsely accused People colluded with the Nazis and forcibly relocated them. From then on, Russians became the main local population. Until now, even if the Crimean Tatars who were exiled to Uzbekistan in recent years continue to return, their number is only over 10%. Russia People accounted for 58%.

This peninsula was originally the territory of Soviet Russia. Khrushchev gave it to Ukraine to join the Soviet Union. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia discussed with Ukraine about returning it, but Ukraine refused and continued to work hard there. immigrants, but now only 25% of Ukrainians are still there

This place has an important geographical location. It is the outlet of the Black Sea, and there is Sevastopol. From Tsarist Russia to the Soviet Union, it is the largest shipbuilding base in Maozi. The Soviet Union Nuclear-powered aircraft carriers were built here, and they are now leased as a military port by the Russian Black Sea Fleet

In short, this place is very important to Russia, and Crimea also has a relative sense of belonging to Russia
