I’m currently researching and co-writing a paper on Ukrainian wine and how the ongoing war is changing the identity and image of Ukrainian wine through the actions of winemakers and industry.

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

What if in the 1994… Ukraine hadn’t… in exchange for peace guarantees backed by the USA and others..hadn’t given their nuclear weapons ? Would Russia have invaded Crimea.. Where are those guarantors now ? What are they doing? Why would Ukraine trust a new guarantee?
