At our last session we considered amongst other topics the conflict in The Ukraine.
We talked about the history of the Soviet Union - its conception and its breakup. Ukraine as a country has only existed since 1992. Its existence has always been precarious. Is it an area or a country that no one recognises. Napoleon invaded Russia through the Ukraine. The Nazis invaded the Soviet Union through Ukraine. Is Russia seeing history repeat itself by claiming that NATO is coming to Russia through the Ukraine.
We will continue to consider all things relevant to current events over the next few months.
