Dear Kyiv Independent community members,

After reading the responses to our last community survey, we decided we wanted to try a new way for you to be able to share articles from the Kyiv Independent – one that takes our content offline.

Attached here is a PDF with five articles from the previous week, designed to be easy to print or send as an attachment to your friends and family. We received some requests from members about print editions of our articles or ways to share the Kyiv Independent that don’t rely on the internet.

We want to say thank you to everyone who already shares our articles or who forwards the weekly blast to their community, and to those who took the survey and left us suggestions. We’re always looking for more ways to make our work accessible, so if you have any ideas you’d like to share, or any feedback for these PDFs, please leave a comment below! 

We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you and well done.

Indeed well done. But there's an issue that I have not seen addressed in your articles. Professor Plokhy's book describes an active independence movement in Ukraine in the years leading up to and during WWII, with active military units operating in opposition to the Red Army. He describes the movement as "nationalist" in character and further mentions that some of those nationalist military units worked with the Germans to oppose the Red Army, mainly in today's western Ukraine. (The enemy of my enemy might be a friend.) Given these facts, it is not hard to see how the Russians might conflate WWII Ukrainian and German nationalists opposing the Red Army and label then all "Nazis." And with that label having the impact it does, it's not hard to see why Putin uses it. For him, any nationalist is by definition a Nazi. Ukrainians today are nationalists to the core, with goal of a free and independent nation

a free and independent nation, and the goal will be reached. Slava Ukraini!
