Last night, Russia attacked Ukraine.
Yet, that attack was merely the culmination of hundreds of years of aggression from Russia against Ukraine. This latest war began in 2014 when Russia invaded and took Ukrainian land. Since then, a hybrid war of cyberattacks, snipers, propaganda, and more has been waged against Ukraine.
Many people around the world might not understand the conflict. Maybe they even have false beliefs. They’re asking questions like–
“Isn’t Ukraine just like one of those Russian states?”
No, Ukraine existed hundreds of years before Russia.
“Why is Ukraine so important to Russia?”
Russia covets the resources and land of Ukraine.
“Why are they fighting?”
To explain the history and reasons behind this horrific Russian attack, Alex Morozov, Founder and CEO of Swan Software Solutions and Ukrainian-American, shares in this column published on Current Publishing.
