ukraine. it's an ancient and proud land. with a rich history filled with much beauty heroism and sacrifice. ukraine is a border land. a place where east meets west. this is the flag

of ukraine the blue represents the sky the gold its seemingly endless fields of wheat. ukraine is a prize many have sought. and much blood spilled in the quest to possess it. ukraine has been the pathway for western powers as they attempted to conquer the east. in world war one. and world war 2. and every time the ukrainian people ended up paying the highest price for these grand games of power. history doesn't repeat but it surely rhymes said mark twain. if one looks closely at the history of ukraine one will notice many rhymes. being surrounded by stronger

powers ukraine has needed a lot of cunning to survive and the art they truly mastered with time is the art of changing sides. in the middle of the 17th century ukrainian leader dunhill netsky broke a truce agreement made with poland siding more powerful russia. just over 50 years later as the russian swedish war was raging another ukrainian leader ivan mazeppa bro. the union with russia when he switched sides joining forces with the swedish invaders many times ukrainian history was written by 3rd parties seeking to keep the gains of a revolution at any cost russia agreed to the humiliating conditions of the breast with treaty of 1918 which turned ukraine into a german protectorate another historical document to change the fate of ukraine was

the molotov ribbentrop pact of 19391 of many such agreements being signed between european countries and rising germany. attempting to protect his nation from the approaching nazi threat. joseph stalin negotiated a treaty of nonaggression with adolf hitler while promising each other piece of the soviet and german foreign ministers molotov and ribbentrop realigned the map of eastern europe splitting it into german and soviet spheres of influence. no sooner had the mala tav ribbentrop pact been signed then poland was split and in september of 1939 eastern poland awoke to be western ukraine and a part of the family of soviet republics and the u.s.s.r. . but even this bold dividing of lands

and nations only delayed the inevitable germany broke its promise to the u.s.s.r. . on june 22nd 1941 germany invaded the u.s.s.r. launching barbara rossa the largest military operation in world history. barbara was aiming for st petersburg moscow and kiev ukraine 3 destinations of major significance. ukraine with its rich lands and resources was an important industrial and economic source for the u.s.s.r. to cut it off from the soviet union would strike a big blow indeed. for most of the soviet union the 2nd world war was about fighting the invaders of the land. but it wasn't quite so simple for ukraine the truth is ukraine has never been

a united country. when world war 2 broke out a large part of western ukraine's population welcomed the german soldiers as liberators from the recently forced upon them soviet rule and openly collaborated with the germans. the real scale of collaboration was not announced for many years after the war but we now know that whole divisions and battalions were formed by ukrainian collaborators such as s.s. c. and not to go and roll into battalions. just in the beginning of the war more than $80000.00 people from college cina region voluntarily enrolled into division s.s. galad seen in a month and a half notorious for their extreme cruelty towards the polish jewish and russian people on the territory of ukraine. members of these military groups came mostly from the organization of ukrainian nationalists the 0 un founded in 1929 this

organization had an ultimate goal of creating an ethnically pure independent ukraine and considered terror an acceptable tool for achieving their ends their official flag was black and red bland and blood it will remain in ukraine's history long after the o. un will cease to exist in early 1940 the most radical nationalistic part of the organization of ukrainian nationalists got its own leader step on bond era severely anti semitic an anti coming. just he proclaimed an independent ukraine in 1901 his german allies frowned upon such an act of self will and it landed him in prison for nearly all the 2nd world war not participating in the events physically. still managed to successfully spread his ideology. many independent historians estimate that the militia exterminated from 152200000 jews on ukrainian

territory occupied by the germans by the end of 1941. the most notorious and outrageous massacre took place september 29th and 30th 1941 . of the city of kiev and its vicinity must appear on monday september 29th by 8 o'clock in the morning. bring documents money and valuables and also warm clothing linen cetera. they need not follow this order and are found elsewhere will be shot. 33771 jews were killed in this 2 day operation of the nazis and ukrainian militia. another outrageous massacre was carried out by the ukrainian

insurgent army and the bond faction of the organization of ukrainian nationalists in german occupied polish foligno and eastern between 19431944 this genocide of poles was led by me that 35260000 people in vali nya and 25240000 eastern. fell victim to this massive ethnic cleansing operation. sensing the inevitable loss of the german troops the organization of ukrainian nationalists who gave up on their former ally and began fighting equally against the germans and the soviet forces. in january 943 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 1944. 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 1950 s. when the last collaborators were either detained or fled the country. on may 7th 1945 germany unconditionally surrendered to the allies ukraine remained a part of the soviet union ft for. its. the peace after the 2nd 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.

the era of political and military tensions between the u.s. and the u.s.s.r. lasted for nearly 45 years keeping humanity under the constant threat of nuclear war. in this battle the united states never lost sight of ukraine's importance. 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 shows strong ties between u.s. intelligence and ukrainian nationalists since 1946 from the cia agency report it is clear that they were not mistaken about the nature of ukrainian nationalists organizations or their leader step on bond dare i himself according to

un romance you have it was a general of the ukrainian insurgent army and others contributed greatly to the movement 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 1954 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 60 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

illustrators clashed with police hundreds of thousands protesting the results of the election and calling for a new vote. ukraine has had 2 color revolutions in its 24 years of independence in 2004 crowds of people descended upon kiev marking the start of the orange revolution. at that time ukraine became once again a battlefield of 2 forces the russian and western governments the culmination of this conflict took place during the presidential elections in november of 2004. the 2 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
