There always was Eastern and Western Ukraine - two absolutely different cultures.
At least this was very predictable  |
Having lived in Ukraine a bit and having friends in both sides, I would tend to agree with the above. As a foreigner there and having no beef in this conflict thats the feeling I got. This was meant to happen sooner or later, two very different cultures and I couldnt see how this would work in the long run......
There is a part of the population in the middle of the country more or less that is very mixed, but the majority of ones in the south/east part felt more russians and the ones in the west felt closer to Europe and hate Russia. Personally I just hope no more normal people get killed....
