⚡ What might happen if Ukraine withdraws from the parts of #Donetsk Oblast that #Russia demands?
Volodymyr Yermolenko, editor-in-chief of #UkraineWorld, explores these questions in a new episode of Explaining Ukraine Live on Patreon:
🔗 https://t.co/HnBgVLuxhx
🗨️ "The Russians are saying they will capture #Donbas within two months. And therefore, #Ukraine supposedly has two months to withdraw, and then the war will end. But if Ukraine does not withdraw within two months, then #Russia will seize Donbas – and after that, there will be other terms.
The logical question is: if their goal is only Donbas, why do they say they will go further and the terms will be different? So the issue is, after all, not only about Donbas," Volodymyr #Zelenskyy said at a press conference during the #Bucha Summit.

🎙This episode unpacks how WWII history is distorted and weaponized in current narratives.
https://t.co/4efo0RXjcb
Volodymyr Yermolenko, Ukrainian philosopher and writer, the chief editor of #UkraineWorld, president of PEN Ukraine, sheds light on Ukraine’s real role in #WWII.
Trump’s remark about Putin and Russia having lost 51 million people in WWII, which “it won,” echoes one of Putin’s favoured narratives - but it’s misleading.
Here’s why:
🔸It wasn’t Russia alone. It was the entire Soviet Union that fought and won, including all 15 republics. The Ukrainian SSR was one of them.
🔸Nearly 7 million Ukrainians fought in the Red Army. Millions never returned home.
🔸Some 2.4 million Ukrainians were deported to Nazi Germany for forced labor.
🔸Ukraine was a major battlefield: 714 cities and 28,000 villages were destroyed. So were 419,000 industrial facilities.
🔸330,000 cultural artefacts were looted from Ukraine.
🔸The world recognised Ukraine’s massive contribution by granting the Ukrainian SSR membership in the newly founded United Nations in 1945.
🔸And let’s not forget: Putin wasn’t even born during WWII. To say he “lost his people” is not just misleading - it’s absurd.
Reducing the Allied victory to “Russia’s” win erases the sacrifice of millions across the USSR, especially Ukraine. History must be remembered truthfully and not rewritten for propaganda.

#UkraineWorld visited the southern #Ukrainian oblasts that were de-occupied in 2022. Many villages and towns were damaged by #Russian troops and are empty now, as people were forced to leave their homes to save their lives.
In #Snihurivka, we met a man who endured the #Russian occupation and is now staying in the town. Despite the tragedies and destruction, he remains resilient and believes in victory. This is the mood of most #Ukrainians.

何世紀もの間、 #ロシア は #ウクライナ の文化、言語、歴史をあらゆる方法で破壊しようとしました。ウクライナ語の禁止、地域全体の焼土化、兵器によるウクライナ人の虐殺、人為的な飢饉、二度と故郷に帰れない #シベリア への追放など。
21世紀になっても、何も変わっていません。
ビデオでご覧いただけるウクライナの町 #マルハネツ の美しい建物は、2022年にロシア軍に攻撃されました。これは、ウクライナにおけるロシアの残虐行為の数千の例の一つに過ぎません。
🎥: ウクライナワールド
For centuries, #Russia tried to devastate #Ukrainian culture, language, and history in any way. With the banning of the Ukrainian language, burning to the ground whole settlements, killing Ukrainians with weapons, artificial famine, exiling people to #Syberia with no chance back home ever again.
In the 21st century, nothing changed.
The beautiful building in the Ukrainian town of #Marhanets which you can see in the video was hit by Russians in 2022. It's just one of the thousands of examples of Russian atrocities in Ukraine.
