UKRAINE BACKGROUND
The Western Ukraine fought with the Nazis in World War II.
Those aligned to Russia reject EU countries'involvement in NATO wars
as well as Goldman Sachs'control of many EU country treasuries.
Those aligned to Europe want independence from Russia. The dissolution of the
Soviet Union and separate of the Ukraine from Russia was coordinated by the CIA
and its former director G H W Bush's deliberate destabilization. Several Harvard
economists including Jeffrey Sachs were indicted but went scotfree.
