in january nine hundred forty three u.s.s.r. troops started pushing the nazis back liberating one part of ukraine after another . western ukraine was the last ukrainian region held by the germans finally being liberated in october of one nine hundred forty four. banderas bands continue to wage their guerrilla war against the soviet regime carrying out bloody raids on ukrainian villages and towns and leaving behind chaos and casualties. this war went on until the middle of the one nine hundred fifty s. when the last collaborators were either detained or fled the country. on may seventh one thousand nine hundred forty five germany unconditionally surrendered to the allies ukraine remained a part of the soviet union. the peace after the second world war was short lived. the united states

and the soviet union nations who allied together along with england to defeat the nazis tragically became foes as the cold war began. a batch or sudden passing i've only just learnt you were a south and taken your last to bang tax. cut up to us we all knew it but i tell you i'm sorry i could so i write these last words it helps to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. and i know when we first met my life turned on each. but then my feeling statics change you talked about more like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like. the questions are

archived and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not need a funeral the same as one enters the mind gets consumed with the death of this one quite different slave speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. was she in a psych genetically modified organisms in a system and in the food industry in the one nine hundred ninety s. . what time is taking that i'm not upset and what does not have to do to cheer my. life. was just something that just. didn't have the shadows almost swamped. life is

a chemical widely used to lead. was it was widely believed for was like the beer allowing the history. they used closer to runs off there's a possible temptation that they had of her future scientists proof that g.m. products really awful on the human race to sign a surface to wells free of g.m.'s in crisis eight which may even be able to actually cost the points of never sent. up quite the many flips over the years so i know the game inside guides. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch put a final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the superman he just killed in a loneliness and spending two to twenty million fly a. book it's an experience like. nothing else on here because i want to share what

i think of what i know about the beautiful game played great so while transfer. and base is going to. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. the era of political and military tensions between the us and the u.s.s.r. lasted for nearly forty five years keeping humanity under the constant threat of nuclear war. in this battle the united states never lost sight of ukraine's importance. the u.s.

intelligence kept a close eye on ukrainian nationalist organizations as a possible source of counter intelligence against the soviet union. cia documents that just recently have been declassified chos strong ties between u.s. intelligence and ukrainian nationalists since one thousand nine hundred forty six from the cia agency report it is clear that they were not mistaken about the nature of ukrainian nationalists organizations or their leaders step on bond dare himself according to an o.s.'s report of september one thousand nine hundred forty five bunn darragh had earned a fierce reputation for conducting a reign of terror during world war two after the second world war bundy era and other ukrainian nazi leaders fled to europe where the cia helped them hide. the cia later inform the immigration and naturalization service that it had concealed steffen bond darragh and other ukrainians from the soviets the operations involving

ukrainians continued for many years the nuremberg trials of one thousand nine hundred forty five in one nine hundred forty six brought the political economic and military leaders of fascist germany to justice and revealed to the world the monstrous face of naziism and the crimes they committed but the ukrainian nazis were spared the same fate and some were even granted indulgences by the cia by nine hundred fifty four the agency excused the illegal activities of the zero un security branch. in the name of cold war necessity in one nine hundred forty nine nicola bit the man responsible for the massacres and alina was moved to the united states where he died in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine without ever being investigated or pursued as a war criminal the cia moved to protect ukrainian nationalist leader nicola legged from criminal investigation by the immigration and naturalization service in one

nine hundred fifty two perhaps pantera lost his use to the us or maybe k.g.b. agents outsmarted the cia but in one nine hundred fifty nine step on bond era the leader of the ukrainian nationalists was killed in munich where he was hiding under the name of stefan pople it would be fair to say that bond era became a major symbol of ukrainian nationalism by sheer chance for he was neither its only leader nor its most powerful one dimitrov don't solve was the father of the far right to tell a tarion doctrine in ukraine andriy melnyk was the leader of another faction of the un romance you have it was a general of the ukrainian insurgent army and others contributed greatly to the movement blunder was dangerous ideology suppressed by the communist authorities but supported by external forces never really died the seeds of ukrainian nationalism or passed from generation to generation unfortunately it was just a matter of time before they would once again blossom. in one nine hundred fifty

four ukraine's territory was expanded even more when nikita khrushchev the leader of the u.s.s.r. and ukrainian himself generously gave the crimean region to ukraine. historians would argue about the legitimacy of this transfer for many years to come and sixty years after khrushchev's gift dramatic new events would take place in crimea was around the world are on ukraine as a crisis in crimea continues dozens of heavily armed men seize government buildings in crimea shut you crazy. just shrug your shoulders and say ok crimea is lost and the old arguments would heat up once again. the cold war would heat up and cool down by turns while both rivals were obsessive leave building up military capacity the turning point took place when the new era perestroika came to the u.s.s.r. with its new leader mikhail gorbachev in the middle of the one nine hundred eighty

s. . perestroika meant restructuring towards liberalization and democratization it certainly had a positive impact on the international situation astonishing news from east germany by the sherman authorities have said in essence of the berlin wall doesn't mean anything anymore. but inside the u.s.s.r. the weakening of kremlin control had different consequences. in ukraine a nationalistic political organization. or people's movement emerged in one nine hundred eighty nine due to this mild openness. they advocated for independence of ukraine from the u.s.s.r. and became an incubator for leaders of ukrainian nazis. in one thousand nine hundred one one of them japanee book founded svoboda an openly

radical nationalist party preaching the good old principles of bondage era. if you just. heard jew crane from the jews in russia ukraine for ukrainians and so on his statements got him fifth place in the simon visa center top ten anti-semitic world leader rankings of two thousand and twelve. but also sadly attracted numerous follow ups. dimitri are founded another extreme right organization treason or trident in one thousand nine hundred four. in april two thousand and thirteen became an assistant to a member of parliament from the opposition party who died. later that same year he would become the leader of the most radical ukrainian nazi group the right sector.

andriy paro be would soon appear leading a whole army of ultra nationalist warriors. and the torch marches would once again light up the streets of ukrainian cities. but. the world drastically changed in august one nine hundred ninety one when the u.s.s.r. de facto ceased to exist and the global political map welcomed many newcomers ukraine one of them in modern history it was the first time ukraine was truly independent and all on its own.

the red flag came down over the kremlin tonight as president gorbachev resigned and bought one and seven decades of communist rule in the soviet union. the years after the disintegration of the u.s.s.r. became known as the crazy ninety's in all the post soviet territories. he's leaving behind fifteen independent states which share only a disastrous economy and an uncertain future after having been under a government controlled economy the free market dramatically changed the rules of the game new businesses emerged instantly in the first. all the guards were born overnight. the former country with no class division suddenly became stratified the chosen few became rich while the rest had to fight to survive. so as opposed to pushing they said mr hershel as. they what does that say. you know she's still of us letting us focus list and using your phrase in the world

when you are still in your cell as opposed to pollution is a. good. a list in your menu to do little good reason you know that in the world as they and each you and me and as many of you know dumbass they will. post the system i can. listen to and i'm just i'm president going to michel therrien is going to eventually you will still at the appraisal out of a socialist slush a chicago the people's growing discontent made ukraine more vulnerable to outside forces and a new kind of warfare was launched one not known before the color revolutions. in a stranger's clash with police hundreds of thousands protesting the results of the election and calling for a new vote. ukraine has had two color revolutions in its twenty four years of independence in two thousand and four crowds of people descended upon kiev

marking the start of the orange revolution. at that time ukraine became once again a battlefield of two forces the russian and western governments the culmination of this conflict took place during the presidential elections in november of two thousand and four. the two major candidates western backed victoria yuschenko and russian leaning victoriano covert each almost equally shared the votes of ukrainians by the way calling viktor yuschenko western backed is not an exaggeration. his wife. catarina yuschenko is a former u.s. state department official and worked in the white house during the reagan administration the division was along geographic lines traditionally russian eastern ukraine voted for young age while western ukraine chose use janko by the announced result viktor yuschenko lost to victory on a co-feature but thousands of people didn't agree with it and they came to the

central square of kiev on the twenty second of november. the situation received wide news coverage the country's election commission ignored reports of fraud declaring kremlin backed victory the winner international politicians such as former general secretary of nato. became frequent guests in kiev initiating negotiations between parties in a full thirty odd we will. be able to count. the results of the negotiations however were often reached only on paper thus you shan't go never told the supporters to stop blocking government buildings in central kiev. and therefore these nonviolent and very orange protests lasted for a month during which time the previous election results were no marred by massive corruption and new elections were announced an important nuance just three months before viktor yuschenko became a victim to

a mysterious and still unsolved poisoning but it didn't prevent him from winning in the new election. though as we shall soon see there was much more than just the people's will that led to this victory this peaceful revolution and its leader were warmly welcomed by the international community but the euphoria didn't last long yuschenko its government completely failed with reforms and lost its chance to establish democracy instead descending into infighting viktor yuschenko was not reelected for a second term but at the. end of his presidency he had the time to make one last gift to his supporters from western ukraine.

i. was. the opening of the u.s. embassy in jerusalem on monday was met with violent protests with sixty protesters . from around the world. the e.u. the u.s. . and the european union's energy chief. remains committed to the nuclear deal washington. has left brussels reeling. from the latest official stuff. well she then flew with friends like that at least in engineering europe's longest bridge connecting crimea to russia opened on tuesday.

with the week's top stories on the main headlines of today welcome to the weekly it's the sunday program on this international. the opening of the u.s. embassy in jerusalem on monday was met with large scale protests across the region . please. please. please. oh that will that would lead to send a hand in friendship to israel the palestinians and their neighbors made their. peace.

process. the opening of the embassy went ahead as church world despite the ongoing protests including right house side the gates of the new compound here though is a quick look at why jerusalem is such a contested city. jerusalem is a city that's been a point of contention for nearly a thousand years ever since the first crusaders arrived to drive the muslim population away for nearly two centuries the area was governed by christian congress under the name of the kingdom of jerusalem but the end of the thirteenth

century had been a crusade well he landed up under muslim control with so much turbulent religious history today the area holds significance for christians jews and muslims alike all regard different parts of the old city to be their only sides and since the formation of the state of israel in one hundred forty eight israel considers jerusalem to be its capital the subsequent conflict with the arab neighbors so israel captured and annex the entire city of jerusalem the move has never been recognized by the united nations stands firm on the idea of establishing the two state solution where israel and palestine exist independently so by president trump announcing moving the embassy to jerusalem he's on the line that the u.s. recognizes the holy city to be the capital of israel for the international community that goes against the notion that any change in the city status should come through negotiations a not a unilateral action. angry crowd has gathered there protesting against the embassy

meet the needs mainly for trying to keep the crowd. why you have. i'm here to oppose the surge and by the u.s. administration to relocate their embassy in the heart of the contested city in the heart of the did it for thirty to forty percent of its residents are living under occupation that are not that is the that is their denied basic rights i mean the god that's left reykjavik they asked for it she was against the occupation we're here because we oppose transcendence in this we think it's playing with the lives of israelis and palestinians alike in our lives and if it is not a game. the. was. was. meant to be anybody parliamentarian what do you what do you thing. about the whole incident we are. in a demonstration which has been licensed by there's been a police but immediately after we arrived they attacked us attacked a member of the knesset just because we had it been through the past and then

forgot and then they attacked us and pushed us to the back we are here to see that jerusalem east is ok if i did it today it could be the capital of the state of palestine the tensions are definitely running high here as you can see these scuffles and clashes and we're being pushed forward and. a lot of anger. on what happened let up in fact right out the heart of the firefight up to me don't doubt it but they're sure it is pretty well i don't know what it. was all of this coming as the embassy just across the road is opening so while the mood is witnessing crum pictures of a historic occasion are featured we see them in the city opening just across the road are these kind of scenes i'm searching where there's a lot of anger and out of frustration and a lot of disappointment that the american government when talking with this news of

the israeli army has commented on his handling of the protests and system that they followed standard procedures while acting in self-defense against palestinian protesters it also says it used to live rounds in a selective mana we all saw guests for their views on the embassy move. all the yearly miserable some people around us want us to expose korans to those who declare that they want to kill us who declare that they want to get into israel by movie by clutching called by a guy falls poorer than they are just you know a lot of the regional high limit. the what exactly i. have not heard or on a sunday or later in that has only two for for eleven years your start up always what policy has brought to the world you tell me you have anything resides raising children and. a lot of n.r.a.

anything jews are now a small minority and that population and the more of a minority they become the more undemocratic. and racist israel becomes there are zero israeli injuries zero israeli casualties over two thousand palestinians injured over fifty seven palestinians killed including l.o.l. how sorry how magic. what do all of these protests are monsters not my favorite organization hamas is a political impact grow up rube which has completely failed to exploit israel's gross gross contradictions and to use them against. this increasingly raissa state i have something to tell you

we want to stop the policy and state in the future the two state solution is the international solution it's not the palestinian solution alone i do believe still that there is a chance for this solution but it will take courage and it will take resolve from the international community to step up some. of america's traditional allies have moved to condemn its decision to relook at the embassy calling it a breach of international law and saying that it inflames an already tense situation where some of that criticism was voiced in the motion c. section of the u.n. security council on tuesday the u.s. representative insisted that the embassy move did not undermine the peace process it has no bearing on jerusalem's holy sites it does not prejudge whatever the parties might negotiate and a peace agreement does not under mind the prospects for peace in any way and yet for some this is supposedly

a cause for violence the un human rights council on wednesday voted to launch an international probe into the mass deaths of palestinians on the israeli gaza border and washington condemned the resolution but the u.s. envoy suggesting the international organization has more important issues to deal with however as our teaser caleb maupin explains nikki haley's accusations may turn out to be a double edged sword. the day that the american embassy was officially moved to jerusalem it was a day of great jubilation for american and israeli officials. remember this moment. but across the palestinian territories it couldn't have been more different in beleaguered gaza there was nothing but suffering and chaos our greatest hope is for peace the united states is prepared to support peace negotiations united states is prepared to support a peace agreement in every way that we can and i don't think it hurts the peace

plan. the peace plan will be introduced at the appropriate time there was certainly not any criticism of any of israel's extreme use of force by anyone in the trumpet ministration hamas terrorist backed by iran have incited attacks against israeli security forces and infrastructure so israel is not responsible for shooting mostly peaceful palestinian protesters some of whom were just children shot down by their own soldiers but if you're a place israel with syria suddenly nikki haley's heart bleeds for the dead in far less clear cut situations. yesterday morning. we awoke to pictures to children being carried in the arms of desperate parents yes all the talk about human rights does not apply to palestinian protesters they do not get america's support because they're not proto.
