Politics in Ukraine is ethnic, not class based. A lot of Ukranians remember the famine, and still hate the Russian speaking emigres delivered by Stalin, and the complements returned in kind.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor
“Chicken Kiev, CIA, how many kids did you kill today?”
INCUBUS
Or it was class-based until Denikin’s White Armies and German imperialists got in the mix after the revolution, then came Stalin’s famine then the nazi occupation, with the Ukrainians west of the River Bug being promoted from ‘slav subhumans’ into German allies, with the Cossacks deemed to be ‘Honorary Aryans’, who had no problem exterminating Jews, Gypsies, Poles and anyone else who didn’t fit with with their vision of joining a racially homogenous idea of Europe (including providing guards for Auschwitz). The Russians who were ‘bussed in’ by Stalin east of the Bug share in the mutual distrust and hatred (25-30 million Russians having been exterminated by Nazism). Those Nationalist Ukrainians who resisted both Nazism and Stalinism in the UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army) even fought a guerilla war against Soviet power up until the late fifties- and it’s their black and red flags being seen on the streets of Kiev today (perhaps a throwback to Makhno?), but they were also responsible for the ethnic cleansing of Poles from Volhynia in the disputed western part of Ukraine.
It’s quite shocking to think that only 20 years earlier the Ukraine had one of the biggest anarchist movements in Europe, but the Red Terror put paid to that, along with the military forces of western Europe. Any people seeking the ‘protection’ of one great power bloc over another will always come off badly, sacrificing their autonomy by exchanging one master for another.
