    Here's the answer I've found.

    This shows the areas where Russian is spoken natively.

    This shows where there are buildups of Russian troops.

    This is more like Czechslovakia. Hitler at that time also said he only wanted to move the military into the german-speaking areas of the country in order to protect their interests.

    They took the rest of the country some months later.

    And that my friends is another reason to consider buying an EV. Less money for Putin from oil sales less opportunity for him to participate in costly wars.

    Now I’m from Ukraine and have most of my family living there. This all situation is very sad. People on the ground are scared of what may come. However, there is a strong determination to make invasion very costly for Mr Putin and his troops. Ukraine may suffer significant life losses but so will the aggressor. Mr Putin will pay dearly if he goes for a full scale invasion. Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!

    This is total BS. Ukraine would never go for a federated model.

    They certainly did not go for the current model as the gov was placed there by a military coup suoported with money and arms by the EU and the US, after an election win by considerable margin wanting the opposite.

    They speak Russian, have russian traditions and majority of Ukraine voted to be aligned with previous USSR nations rather than EU.
    Until a military coup with weapons and money supplied by EU and US.
