The key point here is that Ukraine was poor after the Soviet Union fell, and while Russia and everyone else developed, Ukraine stagnated. After that Ukrainians wanted to get into the EU seeing Poland becoming rich and stable thanks to integration with the EU. It's really hard to blame the Ukrainians for wanting to join, as they could literally see what kind of development was happening right across the border in Poland.
Lol no. Half of ukraine are pro russian half anti russia. But everyone before the war was a to eu.
Yeah, best thing was the peaceful separation of Ukraine. Ukraine wouldn't never be able to align itself to one or the other in 1991 state when half country wants EU integration and the other Russia integration
Ukraine was after the Baltic region the most prosperous part of the Soviet Union. They brought it all upon themselves.

You should have mentioned that khruschev whom gave crimea to ukraine, was basically ukrainian in all but birth, having married a ukrainian, lived in ukraine most of his life, and climbing the political ranks of the soviet union from ukraine.
didn't Stalin also made him do this typical ukrainian dance on the table sometimes?
It's probably not that significant. He couldn't do it without support of the party anyways so it was a general good will sentiment. They thought the union would last
One small issue, Krushev never did that, it was another guy during power vacuum after Stalin's death and before Krushev got into the chair. Just check it, it's a pretty popular lie that russian propaganda pushes for absolutely no reason
Hrushchew was Russian, he was born in the village nier Kursk(modern Russia), never spoke Ukrainian, the only thing he was assigned to work in Ukraine by party, that's it. He gave Crimea to bribe them, bc Ukraine was probably one of most anti Soviet republic in USSR (if didn't count Baltic states). Bandera followers in western Ukraine didn't stop fighting after the end of WW2, they was a problem for the USSR untill 50s.
Brezhnev also was Ukrainian

Well, there are a couple of things wrong here. For the most part, this video does demonstrate no bias, however, there are certain nuances that have to be addressed:
1. The root of Ukrainian "nationalism" doesn't really lie in "embracing Polish influence". There was a statement in the same video that said that it is the unique experience of the ethnos living on present-day Ukrainian territory, that shaped its cultural identity. Both the Polish Commonwealth and the Russian Empire attempted to impose cultural assimilation, yet, as mentioned in the video, there were people who cared enough to preserve the unique Ukrainian cultural identity. I guess, one can look at the unique cultural identity of Sicily for an example -- it has been influenced by the Scandinavian cultures, as well the the Arab cultures. In fact, if you think about it, there is no "dominant culture" that influences other, but rather the inter-mingling of people, customs and linguistic traditions that form a cultural identity
2. The explanation of Russian and Ukrainian language nuances are oversimplified. Russian borrows a lot from Turkic languages too, for example; Ukrainian spoken language differs in different territories -- in the Western parts (particularly, the Lviv Oblast') there are indeed a lot of Polish words used colloquially; however, say, in Zakarpattya region there are a lot of Hungarian words used by the locals; in the Bessarabian region (part of the Odesa Oblast') people mix in Bulgarian and Romanian words; whereas, probably, the "purest" form of Ukrainian language is used in the Poltava Oblast'. Russian and Ukrainian are different enough that Russian people may not understand Ukrainians; yet the inverse is rarely true due to the fact that a lot of people learned Russian as part of the Soviet education program.
3. It's "Kyiv" and not "Kiev". While it's part of the sovereign Ukrainian state, a lot of effort is made to promote native Ukrainian pronunciation of cities (Kyiv, Lviv, Kharkiv etc). There are certain city names that have English-specific pronunciation (such as, say, Warsaw, and not "Varshava"), but in this case "Kiev" is the name of the city in Russian that's transliterated into English. This is something that modern-day scholars really didn't bother with until too late, I know, but it's important to acknowledge this difference.
4. It's not a "nationalistic" view to treat the Russian aggression against Ukraine as unjustifiable. The bottom line here is -- the sovereign state of Ukraine has been invaded. All the pretenses used by the Russian government and propaganda can't deny this one fact. Using historical revisionism as the Russians do only exacerbates the problem, I'm afraid.
5. One key fact missed in the NATO part of this video is that Russia is part of the Security Council, and it abuses its position to push its narratives, diluting the war narrative and blocking aid initiatives.
Then again, I have to mention that its admirable that you mentioned the Emsk Ukaz (there was also the Valuyev Tsirkular that deepened the effects of the Emsk Ukaz) and the people responsible for preserving Ukrainian cultural identity (there were many more, but mentioning those names can prompt people to research further, and that's the main point :) )
wow good post, honestly the biggest thing author missed was proper explanation of what USSR was, how USSR rose to one of the most feared countries in the world, but later due to several different things (unsuccessful war in Afghanistan, economy being shit, bureaucracy(nomenklatura) being corrupt, iron curtain and propaganda, unsuccessful reforms, losing allies(China), Chornobyl catastrophe, and more) that ultimately led to dissolution
True, he's talking as if Poland isn't seen as historical enemy No.2 and there wasn't a war after WW1 which ended with Poland occupying WUPR and one region of UPR.
Regarding language, literature standart was based mainly on the dialect from Dnipro region, particularly Left bank and Poltava (with such arguments like "because it's the language of Kotliarevskyi and Shevchenko"), that's why it seems to be "pure".
I don't think nukes on Ukrainian soil was the biggest concern tbh. Thats a casus beli. Turkey and the Baltics already border Russia and don't have American nukes stationed. Your video just explains the ideological perspectives (which will for the most part be irrelevant) not really the political or pragmatic perspectives. Russia hasn't just "liberated" eastern Ukraine, they annexed it. And they want it because it provides access to strategically important Crimea. I don't think Russian politicians really see "slavic brotherhood and history" as something outweighing perceived national interest
Turkey has American nukes stationed. It didnt even concerned the USSR back then though
@nihil_hd1598 turkey had the nukes taken away because of the cuban missile chrisis. So it did bother the ussr but the nukes are gone

Ukraine is not a dialect of Russian it’s literally a different language this is like saying Portuguese and Spanish are the same language. Furthermore the south east of Ukraine is majority ethnically Ukrainian. However the Donbas has a large Russian minority. But not even all the ethnic Russians are pro Russians. Russia started this war in 14 this video gets so much stuff wrong.
if it were a different language, Russians and Ukrainians would not fully understand each other. There are a lot of similarities in these languages. The differences appeared after the lands of Ukraine became dependent on Poland.
@@KOTKy39l Soviet Union:
Plus Ukrainian language has more words than Russian, making it definitely not a dialect of Russian but a more rich and independent language.

Plot related corrections or comments:
1. The cossacks are a much broader term and the phenomenon of Ukrainian cossacks is much more complex than it is actually presented in the video itself. If we address to actual sources kept in Russian historical archieves, we can trace that in a whole bunch of them "Ukraine" and "Ukrainians" are mentioned, thus, Hetmanate is considered even by Russian historians like Danilevsky a part of Ukrainian history.
2. Ruthenians is a much more complex topic. Ruthenians before a distinct division inbetween them were both Carpathian Ruthenian people, Ukrainian and Belarusian people, nowadays only the Carpathian Ruthenian people have kept the name. In a bunch of historical studies of the epoch of later Russian Empire terms "Malorussian", "Ruthenian" and "Ukrainian" were similar, but the first one was more of an office term for the Russians to justify the "Triple united Russian nation".
3. WW1 period here is explained too briefly and its importance is almost neglected. UPR was proclaimed way before Brest-Litovsk peace treaty as autonomous within Russia and got invaded by the bolsheviks and only afterwards had Ukraine made a deal with the Central Powers. But there is much more to tell and speak about how bolsheviks tried to fragment Ukraine into 3 separate republics of Odesa, Donetsk-Kryvyy Rih and Ukrainian Republics, but the later short-living, yet very important for Ukraine statebuilding left them no room for another manuever like that.
4. Even in the documental order itself a reason of "gifting Crimea" or "giving in according to 300 years anniversarry or Pereyaslav treaty" was more of a loud occasion than an actual reason. A lot of Soviet officials have voted for it because of mostly economical reasons. Every SSR, despite being very connected to another, still had their own inner republican economies and it was simply much more effective to manage Crimea from Ukrainian SSR than from Russian SFSR.
5. Ukraine didn't face the NATO only because of the potential of economical growth, but the military protection as well. Tuzla crisis of 2003 and Gas crisis of 2008 should not be ignored. Russia always tried to have a firm grip over Ukraine in the early 2000s. It was more of an attemt of the Ukrainian government to distance itself from the grip, thinking that this will work.
6. About Russian annoyance towards Ukraine sending its request towards NATO is debatable. In 2002 conference with Kuchma, Putin has claimed that the relationship of Ukraine and NATO is the business of the last mentioned 2 partners and not Russia's business. Ukraine never had any agreements with Russia on behalf of not joining NATO or not applying to it.
7. These "sweet deals" are actually not so sweet. The Kharkiv agreement was done to fortify Russian influence in Crimea and keep the Russian navy in there, agreements on behalf of the gas were rubbish because they weren't sold at the markets' price already and were simply returned to a proper price. Its more of a geopolitical manipulation rather than actually "sweet" or "beneficial" agreements for Ukraine, that were, in fact, trading its own sovereignity.
7. The "mad people revolting" and "the change of heart" are way to simple and incosiderate explanations of what exactly happened. Yanukovych was actually standing for European integration of Ukraine with EU, yet during the 2013 Vilnius summit of partnership, Yanukovych has failed it and essentially has ended the prior course of closing together with EU. People, who were revolting were mad over the sudden change of the state course which is understandable given the circumstances.
8. "South-Eastern Ukraine" used as a term is a very typical and sad term that is most frequently used to supply the idea of "Novorossiya" with fresh burning coal. Southern and Eastern Ukraine are different. For example, Kherson region barely had any anti-maidan movement and in fact was a pro-maidan region, Zaporizhzhia was almost split by half in terms of the support of maidan, Odesa had predominant pro-maidan forces, while also having a severe anti-maidan force and in the eastern Ukraine both Luhansk and Donetsk regions had severe support of anti-maidan factions, yet weren't as black and white as well and had Ukrainian protest up until the 28th of April 2014.
9. A "coup" term is irrelevant simply because Ukraine is a parliamentary-presidentary republic and not vice versa. Parliament remained the same and on its place. Plus Turchynov was actually recognised by Lukashenko lmao. But like for real, if we talk about the shown Poroshenko in the video, then his legitimacy was even recognised by Putin himself so I see no problem here. He was elected fairly with multiple foreign organisations taking a watch over the elections.
10. About the foreign support, by the moment when Russian forces have pulled out from the northern Ukraine there was barely any support from the western powers yet. However it is true that this support has benefited Ukraine in its efforts and helps Ukraine defending itself and advancing (Kharkiv offensive, Kherson offensive).
11. The predictions went very far. Severodonetsk wasn't rebuilt at all. Popasna, Bakhmut, Maryinka lay in entire ruins. These are not small cities. Mariupol is being rebuilt slowly, but not economically. Main sources of income were the local factories which are beyond repairment, meaning that the local population might simply not have a reason to return to the city itself or the new population won't have the means to exist there in the future, unless Russia provides good places for the income. 2014 occupied Donbas lays in the same state as in 2014, which will take a long while to rebuild too. But I agree with the fact that a "waiting game" might end in Russian favour because of Russia's vast resources, however the west's aid isn't taken into account either, which is a shame. All in all, prognosis on the situation seems as a bad thought. Its very hard to predict that stuff.
Personal comments:
1. Linguistical and economical pressure of USSR on Ukraine is completely ignored, yet it was the one that actually left an unspeakable trace that even Russian Empire didn't manage to make and it was this exact period that actually matters the most.
2. Refugess topic touched, yet people affected by the war directly (shellings, blockade of Mariupol, civilian losses, warcrimes) aren't touched. Shame that you didn't mention this.
All in all too simplified analysis. I highly advice watching people like Alexander Shtefanov, who do a very deep analysis on the topic with analyzing both 2014, modern and historical topics. Great guy.
Cheers if you've read it and made it this far.

@@KOTKy39l Maidan is the result of Russia's influence.
Ukrainians wanted to have the EU agreement signed, it's their own choice.
But pro-russian president Yanukovich refused to.
So people started a PEACEFUL protest for impeachment (which is legal).
But the violence started when pro-russian Berkut started to shoot civilians with real bullets. After that Ukrainians started to threaten Yanukovich to overthrow him by military means, but it didn't escalate to that point because Yanukovich got scared and left to russia by himself.
I wonder why some people support Russia for this war
The first thing the post-Maidan government did was to repeal the law on regional languages, thus depriving the Russian language(and others) of official status. Right-wing radicals in Ukraine have gained actual power. Pro-Russian people have been oppressed, Ukrainian propaganda has gone crazy in denying any cultural and historical connection with Russia(if you talk to some Ukrainians, you will be able to pick up this narrative: “Russians are not Slavic in origin, they are in no way connected with Kievan Rus, they don’t have their own culture, they stole everything from other peoples, they are to blame for literally all the troubles on the planet” and so on).
There is a lot more that can be said about the civil war in Donbass and the Russian Spring: just remember the “Library”, Victory Day in Mariupol, the atrocities of the “Tornado” battalion and others.
Russians support Russians and pro-Russians, there is absolutely nothing unusual and surprising in this

"Both Russia and Ukraine became independent countries" -- Agreed with it comes to Ukraine.
But what/who did Russia become independent from?
Russia is and has been a colonial empire for 600 years. It just rebranded itself a few times (Muscovy, Russian Tsardom, Russian Empire, USSR, Russian Federation).
from USSR
From Kazakhstan
Copium
Russia left the USSR before Kazakhstan
Russia became independent from the former Soviet republics. now she does not need to feed these countries, let them deal with their own problems. And according to your logic, America is also a colonial country. Let him return the lands to the indigenous peoples of America.

6:56 me and the boys playing Fortnite Ukraine edition 😂
Ukraine declared independence in 1991 and Russia fully recognized it, along with the rest of the world.
There, that's all the background you need to know.
On what grounds did Ukraine get independent? Do you think they just left the USSR?
It got its independence with commitments to perpetual neutrality in the 1990 Declaration of Souvernity, which was then adopted into their 1996 Constitution.
@@vlad_47 it is up to Ukraine alone to decide whether it wants to be neutral or not.

5:30-6:10, so from what I'm getting at is that Uka belongs on the streets?
Russia wanted to expand its domain
Let it. Best to have a multi polar world order than one world order. Or new world order.
And NATO are saviours who don't want to expand
Ok dude
@@nalat1suket4nk0Did nato ever invade a countrys to force them into nato?
@@nalat1suket4nk0 Huh? No, I didn’t mean it seriously. I was just referring to the “domain expansion” meme from jujutsu kaisen 😆
@@randomperson3935 domain expansion idle death gamble
6:46 - Ah yes,, a lot of military support, like helmets and a few stingers.
The main reason why whole scale invasion didn't work for Russia is huge land of Ukraine and bad resource managment from Russia.
The second main reason are people ofcourse, who stand their ground even when they were occupied and surrounded.
The AT and manpads were huge, they cut up russian combined arms and stagnated offensive operations within days.
I don't care that much about the war, but I do wonder sometimes what will happen if one side (finally) wins
well if Russia wins the conflict then it would propably end up with russia annexing southern and easter part of ukraine aswell as estabilishing pro-russia government in ukraine.
meanwhile in the world it could cause either:
another cold war (Russia+allies vs west or BRICS vs west etc.)
simmilar relations like before the war since russian oil will be still needed
or in the worst scenario for europe it could also cause some civil unrest since a lot of countries in europe spent a lot of money on ukraine and now they wont get the money back + if we also count that some countries have also still debts from the covid it can make the people rebel against its own government.
for ukraine? well let me be clear. its impossible for ukraine to conquer the russia and make them surrender because you heard it russia, nukes yada yada yada.
the best scenario for ukraine would be forcing russia to sign the peace deal after ukraine conquer all of its land
this way we could propably see restored ukraine in EU+NATO (but still im not sure with the eu since the ukraine is pretty much destroyed and it would make the debt of EU even larger just to rebuild it)
less better scenario would be peace deal where russia would keep its conquered land. We could propably see ukraine part of NATO and EU but it would again mean a lot of investments from already debt EU
propably the worst scenario that could happen for ukraine (not counting the russia victory) would be for ukraine to end up as buffer state between russia and NATO in which ukraine would be forbidden to enter EU and NATO and it would most likely stand up as some sort of switzerland
this isnt exactly accurate + its missing a lot of details but this is how it could possibly end .
The best case scenario for Ukraine and Europe is Ukraine becomes a part of Russia

@@gunter4476 The only one who wanted the war more than anything is the Russian military complex.
@@alexandremendes3186 bs russian propaganda by a russian troll
@@alexandremendes3186 bullshit, very little civilians died in Donetsk that can easily be dismissed as accidental. Besides Russia started the war in Donetsk by sending soldiers to Donetsk and Crimea so Russia would also be responsible for those accidental deaths too. Also Russia managed to tenfold the number of civilians killed in ukraine in march of 2022 alone compared to 2014-2022.
If the US-led NATO has the right to remove Kosovo from Serbia, Russia has the same right to take Ukraine back. If NATO does not like that fact, they can kick rocks.
You can’t be serious
Who did go in winter and Conquer Russia and he win in winter that is the Mongol
What if you dont like both?
You should be able to see in a more objective light that invading and annexing another country is bad.
its kinda hypocritical when America gets mad at Russia for trying to get their lands back but whenever Texas bring up the word succession the US government gets mad
Because those are not russian lands
Texas is a country of different people now apparently lol
Russia is afraid because when Ukraine join the Eu there lives would improve. But over the border people of Russia seeing this would demand reforms.
Yeah that guy is really trustworthy. 👍
