I think ukraine’s support of Hitler was more complicated than you imply. At the time Ukraine was bitterly smarting over the death of millions of Ukrainians in what became known as the holodomor. This was the direct result of two factors - ongoing resentment from Ukrainians towards the Soviet Union and Stalin’s appalling and short sighted agricultural policies (which by the way have left their mark on the Aral Sea). Further, Ukrainians weren’t very friendly towards Jews. However that had far less impact than the former in supporting Germany.

Yep, that is why Putin does not want the entire country, just the parts where the majority identify as Russian. Everyone in the Soviet Union sphere suffered under Stalin and co.
