This is probably the best analysis of Ukraine that I've read in some time.  An excellent analysis -

After the fall of communism, the biggest mistake Boris Yeltsin's regime made was not to disband the KGB altogether. Instead it changed its name to the FSB and, to many observers, morphed into a gangster organisation, eventually headed by master criminal Vladimir Putin. - Gerard Batten

Yet another one that provides background on why the concept of "Novorossiya" is a fairy tale.  Stirlitz alluded to this in one of his posts.

The first one is spot on with what's happening right now.
To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead. Thomas Paine - The American Crisis 1776-1783

Lemburg was more a Ukrainian city than Austrian or even Polish city

There's really nothing here about Western Ukraine and its impact on the course of Ukrainian history and no mention of the Kuban which has always been Ukrainain

Western Ukraine did not impact Russia much, even after the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.
