History of the Russia-Ukraine Conflict

The Russia-Ukraine conflict is not one that "sporadically" happened. The history is not cut and dry. It is nuanced - it is "grey". In today's episode I focus on the history and build up on the Russia-Ukraine conflict and invasion, as well as the decades of history and misinformation. To understand worldly events we need to understand why they "spark" in the first place. I solely focus on the history today, and in a future episode I will focus on the recent events.
