Politics between Russia and Ukraine.

As of October 2016, the country of Russia wants to take the Ukraine back in order to be part of the Russian Federation again. The Russian government has desires for The Ukraine to become a Russian colony. Not only that! Russia is against Ukraine joining the European Union which the Ukraine desires. The outcome for both Russia and the Ukraine could jeopardize European Union enlargement. Opposition groups in Russia and the Ukraine opposed the growing enlargement of European Union. Russia vehemently opposes the expansion of the European Union although Russian leaders strongly deny opposition in both countries. Since then, tensions between Russia and Ukraine have increased in an intensified manner. 

The real issues behind the politics between Russia and Ukraine are corruption, nepotism, opposition, economic, ecology, and financial mismanagement. Political corruption has plagued the countries of Russia and Ukraine for many centuries. Political opposition to the European Union is nothing new. Such political opposition leads to opposition groups being formed in Russia and Ukraine.
