Reply to comment by RegularStain in Lithuanian president: NATO countries should supply Ukraine with all the weapons it needs by Tayo826

Yea a lot people commenting don’t remember that Ukraine already went through this.

While it’s not the entire story, there is a documentary about how they were fighting for their freedom (and won) in 2015.

What started as a protest led to a full on revolution.

Winter on fire: Ukraines fight for freedom

Guess it’s free on YouTube now.

Yup, that's one of the many revolutions Ukraine had. Granite revolution of 1990 (before soviet collapse), orange of 2004 and Maidan of 2013. We always fought for freedom, democracy and prosperity. Unlike another neighboring nation.

Thanks for sharing the Winter on fire movie, appreciate it a lot

Absolutely, can’t do much on this side of the planet but I’ll definitely try to spread the word about Ukraine and it’s beautiful people.

It was both beautiful and extremely hard to watch.

Slava Ukraini!

And things were only getting better and better. The economy grew, society got more control over politics, bribery and corruption reduced, the police have changed, most of the communist leftovers were expelled from power, bigger cities thrive with more taxes from business, smaller villages got their sh*t together and got new fancy roads and shops, whole bureaucracy got reduced, education system became better than it ever was. Yeah, it has lost and lots of shortcomings. But people, the government and the country as a whole got better. What good would happen if no one gave any shoot just like russians do? Nothing.
