  • Russia and Ukraine's conflict has turned the world upside down. But how did it all start? Why did it come to this? In this special episode of MrSpherical, we explore the backstory of Russia and Ukraine's friendship, from their days during the USSR, all the way to the invasion that's currently going on.
    This is part one of our ongoing coverage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. See part two here: • Russia invades Ukraine!

    2:00 It's weird how Belarus frowned when Russia said "Why America Sucks", since they hate the West, are strong allies with Russia, and now want a Union State with them. It's funny Turkmenistan laughs at Ukraine for not being a full member, when it's not a full member either. Neither Ukraine nor Turkmenistan signed the charter. And unlike Ukraine, Turkmenistan did so to follow a policy of permanent neutrality. Which was recognized by the UN in December 1995. Though Turkmenistan didn't become an associate state of the CIS until 2005.

It is in our humble opinion that Yeltsin was too drunk to rule Russia in the right direction. We are thankful we are best friends with Vladimir.

      @kolya Nazarov Mordor and Russians are bad in this. The average Ukrainian wanted a Western living standard and they annexed Crimea and sent separatists into the Donbass.
      Then used the region of the Donbass to justify a full blown invasion. (SAME PLAYBOOK as with Georgia).
      ruskia cries about ruso-phobia, but makes it happen by using a 20% ruski population of any surrounding country as a reason to invade sovereign lands. That's why no country wants ruski immigrants any more. I feel bad for the average Russian, but unfortunately most of them are just zombies that believe kremlins propoganda anyway. Even hear in California I have to hear about how good Russia is, and I was born in Ukraine. So ya the brain washing is strong in Mordor (russia) but Ukraine is a sovereign country and we will finally rid ourselves of the rasists menace once and for all.

      rusians on the other hand can't really say sorry or act, coz I feel like majority of them, especially older people, do not know truth, and those who know can't talk freely and there are no one to organize crowd to stop this madness, opposition is no existent.
