Ukraine gained independence 30 years ago, after the fall of the Soviet Union. It has since battled to fight corruption and bridge deep internal divisions. Ukraine's western district commonly upheld joining with Western Europe. The conflict that arose in 2014 had its foundations at the actual start of the post-Cold War period, in light of the fact that all along, Russia tried to forestall Ukraine's independence and, when this was unavoidable, looked to restrict it both as far as sovereignty and territory. Russia's military build-up on the border with Ukraine has incited NATO members to deploy troops to Eastern Europe and send weapons and other aid to the government in Kyiv. Ukraine is not a member NATO, the military union of primarily Western nations joined by a peace accord. Yet, post-Cold War pressure between the West and Russia over NATO - or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization - is at the core of the current conflict. Starting around 1999, 14 countries have joined NATO, including Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria and the Baltic states. Russia has requested that the alliance quit extending toward the east - and bar Ukraine from joining. Ukraine's administration has said that it might want to enter the union, alongside different countries that were once essential for or aligned with the previous Soviet Union.
