The reasons for Ukraine's anti-Russia are very complicated, including political, economic, cultural and historical factors.

Ukraine is located at the junction of Eurasia and is part of the Eurasian Continental Bridge. Therefore, it has always been an important economic partner of Russia, and there are close economic ties between the two countries. However, Ukraine's economy has always been relatively weak, with slow economic development, low per capita income and a large gap between the rich and the poor.

In this context, the Ukrainian government hopes to broaden economic channels and cooperate more closely with the EU and other western countries. However, this will also threaten Russia's economic interests. Therefore, after the political crisis in Ukraine, Russia took military intervention and imposed economic sanctions on Ukraine. Ukraine has a unique cultural tradition and historical background.

historical factor

It used to be the center of the Christian Orthodox Church, with rich artistic expressions such as literature, music and dance. There are many overlaps and similarities between Ukrainian culture and Russian culture, but there are also many differences. With the improvement of Ukrainian people's education level and cultural awareness, they pay more attention to national independence and cultural autonomy, and think that Russia has exerted too strong influence and suppression on Ukraine in culture.

Ukraine was once a part of Poland, Austria-Hungary, the Soviet Union and other countries in history, and was ruled and invaded by different countries in different historical periods. This makes the Ukrainian people pay more attention to their national independence and sovereignty and be more alert to threats from outside. At the same time, the historical background and cultural traditions of Ukraine are also different from those of Russia, which deepens the differences and contradictions between the two countries.
