Write a paragraph about national sovereignty in ukraine (20 points)

National sovereignty in Ukraine has become bit of a joke lately. In one corner they have the Europeans pushing for a trade deal to get under the N.A.T.O influence. On the other hand, Russia is pushing them to stay out of the European influence because Russia sees Ukraine as a red line. It is absolutely imperative that Ukraine stays under Russian cloud of influence for many reasons. One of which is that Ukraine is a major country bordering the Eastern Europe. If the N.A.T.O manages to establish their base on the bordering Russian areas, it will be a death call for Russia. So the Russians are stirring up trouble and organizing an armed insurgency that has engulfed the eastern Ukraine. Europe has threatened to back out of the trade deal if Ukraine doesn’t stabilize its borders. Broadly speaking the national sovereignty of Ukraine is in shambles.
