Abstract: Russia-Ukraine: The Historical Background Ukraine, a descendant of Ancient Rus , a part of the Russian empire for centuries and later, the USSR, was the second-most powerful Soviet republic after Russia, and was crucial strategically, economically and culturally. Russian President, Vladimir Putin, noted that Russians and Ukrainians were one people – a single whole. Following the disintegration of USSR in 1991, Ukraine gained independence and has worked towards shedding all its Russian legacy and forged close ties with the West whereas Russia has sought to keep it’s newly formed neighbor within its sphere of influence. Tensions between the two countries escalated during the Euromaidan movement, a protest in the capital city of Ukraine, Kiev in November 2013 against Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych’s decision to reject a deal for greater economic integration with the European Union.
