Ukraine

Ukraine

The recent attack by Russia against the Ukrainian people in the area known as the Crimea Peninsula.  This resulted after a series of new Ukrainian laws were put into effect that were aligning the country closer to Russia and was met with severe opposition by some members of the Ukrainian Parliament and about half of the population of the country.

  

As seen in the picture above in the capitol city of Kiev the people are furious.  After the topple of the current president who was pro Russian, Russia felt threatened by the new uprisings and invaded the Crimea peninsula, which, according to Russia, belongs to them anyway.
