A Brief History Of Ukraine (And Why Russia Wants To Control It)
In this animated video, historian Matt Lewis tells the story of Ukraine's turbulent and often surprising history. Beginning over a thousand years ago with the formation of the Kyivan Rus state, Matt tracks the development of Ukraine during the Mongol invasions, its incorporation into the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth, and eventually it's allegiance with the tsars of a newly formed Russia.
The ongoing crisis in relations between Russia and Ukraine is threatening to engulf eastern Europe in a war on a scale not seen since 1945. The eyes of the world are focussed on the military activity as politicians scramble to encourage a diplomatic solution that will deescalate the conflict.

A brief history of modern Ukraine - BBC News
When the Soviet Union collapsed in the 1990s Ukraine was one of the largest new nations to emerge. It held its first elections in 1991.
Bordered by Russia on the east and by Hungary, Poland and Slovakia on the west, politics in Ukraine have always been divided along those looking east towards Russia and those looking to the West.
Putin has said that Ukraine is “ancient Russian soil” but the majority of Ukrainians don’t feel this way, with 68% of Ukrainians in favour of joining the EU.

VOA’s Myroslava Gongadze reports from Warsaw on Ukraine's Independence Day | VOA News
Hundreds of Ukrainians in Warsaw celebrated Ukraine's Independence Day. Many fled to Poland after Russia's 2022 invasion, with nearly a million Ukrainians now living and working there. Poland's support has boosted its economy, with 44,500 Ukrainian businesses started, nearly half by women. Refugees are grateful for safety but long to return home.

Ukraine: Independence Day celebrated amid continuing Russian war - BBC News
Ukrainians celebrated independence across the country on 25/08 - and there's great pride that they've held the Russian invasion at bay, and are still re-taking occupied areas, albeit slowly. But how to end a conflict that the Pentagon estimates has caused half a million casualties? For many here and their supporters abroad the aim seems to be putting such pressure on the Russian military that Vladimir Putin is overthrown.

A Brief History Of Ukraine (And Why Russia Wants To Control It)
In this animated video, historian Matt Lewis tells the story of Ukraine's turbulent and often surprising history. Beginning over a thousand years ago with the formation of the Kyivan Rus state, Matt tracks the development of Ukraine during the Mongol invasions, its incorporation into the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth, and eventually it's allegiance with the tsars of a newly formed Russia.
The ongoing crisis in relations between Russia and Ukraine is threatening to engulf eastern Europe in a war on a scale not seen since 1945. The eyes of the world are focussed on the military activity as politicians scramble to encourage a diplomatic solution that will deescalate the conflict.
Ukraine was known as the breadbasket of Soviet Russia. It remains politically, militarily, and economically important to Russia today. Precisely why there is a dispute over the sovereignty or otherwise of Ukraine is a complex question rooted in the region’s history. It is a story more than a thousand years in the making. For much of this story, Ukraine did not
exist, at least not as an independent, sovereign state, so the name Ukraine will be used to help identify the region around Kyiv that was so central to the story. The Crimea is an important part of the story too and its history forms a part of the history of the relationship between Russia and Ukraine.

'우크라 독립기념일' 연대로 물든 지구촌 랜드마크... 러軍 포격에 25명 사망
August 24th... is Ukraine's Independence Day, marking the day it decided to split from the Soviet Union.
Countries around the world celebrated the historic anniversary.
But as the war continues, it was a somber occasion marred by violence.
Lee Rae-hyun has the latest.
The streets of Kyiv... on Ukraine's 31st Independence Day... were relatively quiet.
Ukraine banned large gatherings and events over fears that Russia could target them.
The U.S. had also warned any of its citizens still in the country to leave.
But in the other parts of the world,... people sent congratulations to Ukraine in their own way.
In Lithuania, a techno concert was organized by Ukrainian DJs to celebrate Ukraine's independence.
"People ask why we use rave as protest form or similar freedom. And I think it's very obvious when you see people dancing freely, expressing themselves that's exactly what Putin hates and that's what he's scared of. So, that's what we're doing."
Thousands of Ukrainians observed the holiday in Berlin, too, where there was a Freedom Parade through the German capital.
"Today is Ukraine's Independence Day, and that's why we are all here today, to show the entire world that we are independent and that we are fighting for it."
However, the 31st anniversary was darkened by a missile strike on an eastern Ukrainian train station, which killed at least 25 people.
The deputy head of the President's office said the dead included two children, too.
In a video address to UN Security Council, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned the country's invaders regarding the attack.
"We will definitely make the occupiers pay for everything they have done. We will, without any doubt, evict the invaders from our land. No trace of this evil will remain in our free Ukraine."
Meanwhile, fresh military support for Ukraine was announced on the same day.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson made an unexpected visit to Kyiv on Wednesday and pledged to provide further military aid... worth 63-point-5 million U.S. dollars.
This will include unmanned surveillance and missile systems.
U.S. President Joe Biden also announced 3 billion dollars in fresh military aid... to support the people of Ukraine who are fighting, he said, "to defend their sovereignty."

But as the war continues, it was a somber occasion marred by violence.
Lee Rae-hyun has the latest.
The streets of Kyiv... on Ukraine's 31st Independence Day... were relatively quiet.
Ukraine banned large gatherings and events over fears that Russia could target them.
The U.S. had also warned any of its citizens still in the country to leave.
But in the other parts of the world,... people sent congratulations to Ukraine in their own way.
In Lithuania, a techno concert was organized by Ukrainian DJs to celebrate Ukraine's independence.
"People ask why we use rave as protest form or similar freedom. And I think it's very obvious when you see people dancing freely, expressing themselves that's exactly what Putin hates and that's what he's scared of. So, that's what we're doing."
Thousands of Ukrainians observed the holiday in Berlin, too, where there was a Freedom Parade through the German capital.
"Today is Ukraine's Independence Day, and that's why we are all here today, to show the entire world that we are independent and that we are fighting for it."
However, the 31st anniversary was darkened by a missile strike on an eastern Ukrainian train station, which killed at least 25 people.
The deputy head of the President's office said the dead included two children, too.
In a video address to UN Security Council, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned the country's invaders regarding the attack.
"We will definitely make the occupiers pay for everything they have done. We will, without any doubt, evict the invaders from our land. No trace of this evil will remain in our free Ukraine."
Meanwhile, fresh military support for Ukraine was announced on the same day.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson made an unexpected visit to Kyiv on Wednesday and pledged to provide further military aid... worth 63-point-5 million U.S. dollars.
This will include unmanned surveillance and missile systems.
U.S. President Joe Biden also announced 3 billion dollars in fresh military aid... to support the people of Ukraine who are fighting, he said, "to defend their sovereignty."
