"The authors offer a brief excursion into the history of Ukraine, starting from its arising to the present day, while simultaneously analyzing relations between Ukraine and Russia: the obstacles created by Russia on Ukraine's path to EU and NATO membership, the economic and gas blackmail Russia exercises against Ukraine and throughout Europe, Russia's attempts to create in Ukraine a springboard for its further advance from Ukraine and Russia into Eastern European countries using the tactics of Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Soviet Union to do that. Whether the battle for Ukraine will grow into World War III, or will it become for Russia another Afghanistan resulting in the collapse of Putin's regime – that is the core question of this very topical book, which no one would dare to now publish in Russia. The Ukrainian version has been published in order to unite Ukraine around a common understanding of history and the goal towards which our country is heading." InRussian.
